Assembly Resolution No. 1157

BY: M. of A. Cruz

 MEMORIALIZING Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim
 April 2026 as Workplace Violence Prevention Month in
 the State of New York

 WHEREAS, It is the custom of this Legislative Body to officially
recognize April 2026 as Workplace Violence Prevention Month with the
goal of increasing awareness to prevent and combat workplace violence;
and

 WHEREAS, Attendant to such concern, and in full accord with its
long-standing traditions, this Legislative Body is justly proud to
memorialize Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim April 2026 as Workplace
Violence Prevention Month in the State of New York; and

 WHEREAS, Every individual deserves a workplace that is free from the
threat of violence, fostering safety and stability within our local
communities; and

 WHEREAS, Health care workers, whom the federal government reports
are five times more likely to experience workplace violence than
employees in all other industries, deserve a secure and violence-free
workplace environment; and

 WHEREAS, The month of April is federally acknowledged as Workplace
Violence Prevention Awareness Month, emphasizing the national commitment
to this crucial cause; and

 WHEREAS, Everyone is entitled to a workplace free of violence; now,
therefore, be it

 RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
memorialize Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim April 2026 as Workplace
Violence Prevention Month in the State of New York; and be it further

 RESOLVED, That copies of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be
transmitted to The Honorable Kathy Hochul, Governor of the State of New
York; the New York American College of Emergency Physicians; the New
York State Emergency Nurses Association; and the American Nurses
Association of New York.
