Bill > SB184

This bill establishes Children's Environmental Health Day on the second Thursday of October in New Hampshire, requiring the governor to annually issue a proclamation about the day. The proclamation will encourage cities and towns to observe the day by raising awareness and educating citizens about critical environmental health issues, specifically focusing on clean air, clean water, safe food, and safe consumer products. By creating this annual observance, the bill aims to draw attention to the importance of environmental conditions that impact children's health, providing a dedicated opportunity for public education and community engagement on these vital topics. The bill will go into effect 60 days after its passage, giving local governments and communities time to prepare for the first official observance of Children's Environmental Health Day.
