Bill > S06580

This bill amends the New York State executive law by adding "October 7th Remembrance Day" to the existing list of annual commemorative days. The bill specifically inserts October 7th into the section of law that enumerates various days of remembrance and recognition throughout the year, which already includes other notable commemorative days like Holocaust Remembrance Day, September 11th Remembrance Day, and Veterans' Days for different conflicts. By establishing October 7th as an official day of remembrance, the bill appears to be creating a formal state recognition of a significant event, though the specific historical context or reason for this particular date is not detailed in the bill text. The amendment is straightforward, simply adding the new commemorative day to the existing list of recognized days in the New York State executive law. The bill includes a standard provision that it will take effect immediately upon passage.
