Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim January 27, 2025, as Holocaust Remembrance Day in the State of New York

AI Summary

This resolution memorializes Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim January 27, 2025, as Holocaust Remembrance Day in New York State, highlighting the historical significance of this commemoration. The resolution provides context about the Holocaust, noting that from 1933 to 1945, six million Jews were systematically murdered by the Nazis, along with millions of other victims, in a genocide that stripped Jewish people of their rights and property. It emphasizes that 2025 marks the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau, the largest Nazi death camp, and points out that January 27th was designated as International Holocaust Remembrance Day by the United Nations in 2005. The resolution underscores the importance of remembering this tragedy to prevent future genocides, noting the ongoing global threat of ethnic cleansing and the need to educate future generations about these historical events. By calling on the governor to officially recognize this day, the resolution aims to ensure that the lessons of the Holocaust are not forgotten and that people remain vigilant against hatred, persecution, and tyranny.
