quality of life; and

 WHEREAS, Encouraging therapists and departments to organize events
and festivities within their workplaces and communities in order to help

diseases like COPD and asthma to the community; inspire by building the
desire in others to enter the respiratory care profession; and learn by
maximizing personal and professional skills with new resources; and

 WHEREAS, It is imperative that there be greater public awareness of
this serious health issue and more must be done to increase activity at
the local, State and national levels; now, therefore, be it

 RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
memorialize Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim October 25-31, 2026, as
