Bill > SCR101

This concurrent resolution proclaims September 4, 2025, as Taekwondo Day in California, recognizing the martial art's significant cultural and personal development contributions. The resolution highlights Taekwondo's rich history as a traditional Korean martial art dating back over 2,000 years, noting its official status as South Korea's national sport since 1971 and its inclusion in the Olympic Games in 1994. It emphasizes Taekwondo's core values of courtesy, integrity, perseverance, self-control, and indomitable spirit, and acknowledges California's robust Taekwondo community, which includes hundreds of dojangs (schools), instructors, athletes, and families. The resolution encourages all California residents to recognize and celebrate Taekwondo's positive impact on individuals, families, and communities, and directs the Secretary of the Senate to distribute copies of the resolution to Taekwondo organizations across the state as a gesture of respect and recognition.
