BY: M. of A. Tapia

 MEMORIALIZING Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim
 January 26, 2025, as the 212th Anniversary of Juan
 Pablo Duarte Day in the State of New York

 WHEREAS, The people of the Dominican Republic acquired autonomy and
sovereignty on the 27th day of February 1844; and

 WHEREAS, The Island of Quisqueya, the indigenous name for what later
became the island of Hispaniola, was the cradle of thinking and
advancement in the western hemisphere, establishing the first university
and cathedral of the New World; and

 WHEREAS, On the 26th day of January 1813, Juan Pablo Duarte, the
founding father of the Dominican Republic, was born; and

 WHEREAS, During the month of January 2025, Dominicans will celebrate
the 212th Anniversary of Juan Pablo Duarte's birth; and

 WHEREAS, Juan Pablo Duarte, along with Francisco Del Rosario Sanchez
and Ramon Matias Melia, formed La Trinitaria, a secret organization that
initiated the movement for the independence of the Dominican Republic;
and

 WHEREAS, During the month of January 2025, Dominican Nationals and
Dominican Americans from throughout the Dominican Republic and the
United States will celebrate the independence of the Dominican Republic;
and

 WHEREAS, Each year, this auspicious occasion is celebrated and
provides an opportunity for all people to reflect upon the rich history
of the Dominican Republic and the many contributions of Latin Americans
to our country as well as the world; and

 WHEREAS, It is the sense of this Legislative Body to recognize the
great contributions which Dominicans, such as Juan Pablo Duarte, have
brought to our State and Nation; now, therefore, be it

 RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
memorialize Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim January 26, 2025, as the
212th Anniversary of Juan Pablo Duarte Day in the State of New York; and
be it further

 RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be
