Assembly Resolution No. 618

BY: M. of A. Stern

 MEMORIALIZING Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim
 May 2025, as Military Appreciation Month in the
 State of New York

 WHEREAS, Many citizens of the great State of New York honored this
country by serving valiantly in the United States Armed Forces and their
reserve components; and

 WHEREAS, Residents of this State can never forget the courageousness
with which these servicemen and women fought and provided essential
services on battlefields, in jungles, in the air, and at sea; and

 WHEREAS, This Legislative Body is justly proud of its commitment to
those in the military who served in the time of active conflict and in
times of peace; and

 WHEREAS, It is the sense of this Legislative Body to memorialize
Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim May 2025, as Military Appreciation
Month in the State of New York, in conjunction with the observance of
National Military Appreciation Month; and

 WHEREAS, National Military Appreciation Month, designated by
Congress, provides a period of encompassing both the history and
recognition of our armed forces with an in-depth look at the diversity
of its individuals and achievements; and

 WHEREAS, National Military Appreciation Month allows New Yorkers to
educate each generation of the historical impact of our military through
the participation of the community with those who serve, encouraging
patriotism and love of America; and

 WHEREAS, The month of May gives the Nation and State a forum, a
framework, a time, and place on which to focus, to draw attention and
express our gratitude to our armed forces and to recall our history; and

 WHEREAS, May 2025, National Military Appreciation Month, includes VE
Day, Military Spouse Appreciation Day, Loyalty Day, Armed Forces Day,
Public Service Recognition Week, and Memorial Day; this important month,
therefore, honors these Americans who have given their lives in service
to our great nation and the men and women now serving in uniform; and

 WHEREAS, National Military Appreciation Month recognizes those on
active duty in all branches of services, the National Guard and
Reserves, military retirees, veterans, and all their families; now,
therefore, be it

 RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
most gratefully acknowledge the servicemen and women, veterans, military
retirees and all their families and respectfully memorialize Governor
Kathy Hochul to proclaim May 2025, as Military Appreciation Month in the
State of New York; and be it further

 RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution, suitable engrossed, be
transmitted to The Honorable Kathy Hochul, Governor of the State of New
York.
