Senate Resolution No. 1983

BY: Senator RAMOS

 MEMORIALIZING Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim
 May 1, 2026, as May Day in the State of New York

 WHEREAS, It is the custom of this Legislative Body to recognize
official days set aside to increase awareness of serious matters that
affect the lives of citizens of New York State; 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 May 1, 2026, as May Day in
the State of New York, in conjunction with the observance of
International Workers' Day; and

 WHEREAS, This Legislative Body, representing the people of the great
Empire State, appreciates all workers, men and women, union and
non-union, farm workers, and workers in the private and public sectors,
who work every day to make New York more productive and fiscally
healthier and stronger; and

 WHEREAS, This Legislative Body also remembers the Haymarket rally in
Chicago in 1886, generally considered significant as the origin of May
Day, observing workers' rightful demands for an eight-hour workday; and

 WHEREAS, During this day, the strong union traditions in New York
State as well as the belief in hard work and work ethics for union and
non-union workers are proudly recognized and observed as are New York
workers' freedom to organize in unions and for collective bargaining;
and

 WHEREAS, May 1st is recognized and celebrated across the world as
May Day in recognition of International Workers' Day; now, therefore, be
it

 RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
memorialize Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim May 1, 2026, as May Day in
the State of New York; and be it further

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