AI Summary

This resolution memorializes Governor Kathy Hochul to officially proclaim April 6-12, 2025, as Crime Victims' Rights Week in New York State, aligning with the national observance of the same event. The resolution highlights the significant impact of crime in the United States, noting that an estimated 22 million Americans are directly harmed by crime each year, with each incident affecting numerous family members, friends, and community members. It emphasizes the importance of treating crime victims with dignity and compassion, recognizing the lasting physical, psychological, emotional, and financial consequences of criminal victimization.
