AI Summary
This Concurrent Resolution officially designates May 4th to May 8th, 2026, and the first week of May in subsequent years, as "Black Health Equity Advocacy Week" throughout California. The resolution acknowledges the significant health disparities faced by Black Californians, including lower life expectancy and higher rates of certain cancers and pregnancy-related deaths, and recognizes that health equity, as defined by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, means everyone has a fair chance to be healthy by removing obstacles like poverty and discrimination.
