  WHEREAS,  It  is the sense of this Legislative Body, in keeping with
its time-honored traditions,  to  recognize  celebrations  which  foster
ethnic  pride  and  enhance  the  profile  of  cultural  diversity which
strengthens the fabric of the communities of New York State; and

  WHEREAS, Attendant to such concern, and  in  full  accord  with  its
long-standing  traditions,  this  Legislative  Body  is  justly proud to
memorialize Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim May 23, 2022,  as  Italian
American Day in the State of New York; and

  WHEREAS,  Italian  American  Day is a joyous celebration of culture,
civic conviviality and other merriment,  held  annually  throughout  the
State  of New York, in commemoration of the Republic of Italy's National
Holiday, "Festa Della Repubblica Italiana," Italy's 4th of July; and

  WHEREAS, Festa Della Repubblica  Italiana,  a  national  holiday  in
Italy,  marks  the day when Italy voted, after World War II and fascism,
To become a democratic republic; and

  WHEREAS, Italian American Day celebrates 46 years of the heritage of
Italy's glorious historical past, the wealth of  its  present,  and  the
opportunities of its future; and

  WHEREAS,  This  auspicious  day provides an opportunity to celebrate
the significant contributions of Italian Americans so  that  all  people
may  know and appreciate Italian history and traditions, and of the role
Italian Americans have  played,  and  will  continue  to  play,  in  our
society; now, therefore, be it

  RESOLVED,  That  this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
memorialize Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim May 23, 2022,  as  Italian
American Day in the State of New York; and be it further

  RESOLVED,  That  a  copy  of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be
transmitted to The Honorable Kathy Hochul, Governor of the State of  New
