Bill Summary
26-1002 CONCERNING THE COMMEMORATION OF MARTIN LUTHER KING JR. DAY.
AI Summary
This resolution, a formal expression of opinion by the Colorado General Assembly, encourages all entities within Colorado to observe Martin Luther King Jr. Day with ceremonies and activities, emphasizing community togetherness and service as a "day on, not a day off" to honor Dr. King's legacy of nonviolent activism and his role in achieving landmark federal legislation like the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965. It also advocates for incorporating the teaching of Dr. King's principles into Colorado's social studies standards to combat racism, discrimination, and violence, and calls for continued commitment to the ideals of those civil rights acts, with copies of the resolution to be sent to various federal and state officials and organizations.
