AI Summary
This resolution, a formal expression of opinion or will by the California State Assembly and Senate, designates February 24, 2026, as a Day of Solidarity with Ukraine. It aims to honor the resilience of the Ukrainian people, particularly in light of Russia's full-scale invasion that began on February 24, 2022, which caused a major refugee crisis and widespread devastation. The resolution acknowledges California's significant Ukrainian-American population and the contributions of Ukrainian immigrants throughout the state's history. It encourages educational institutions, youth organizations, local governments, and community groups to engage in activities that promote understanding of democracy, peacebuilding, human rights, and Ukrainian culture, while also reaffirming California's support for Ukrainian refugees and encouraging state agencies to provide resources for their safety, stability, and integration. Additionally, it encourages the Governor to raise the Ukrainian flag at the State Capitol on this day and on Ukrainian Independence Day to recognize Ukraine's independence and resilience.
