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

State of New York, in commemoration of the Republic of Italy's National
Holiday, "Festa Della Repubblica Italiana," Italy's 4th of July; this
festive day will be the 50th Anniversary of Italian American Day; 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 50 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 22, 2023, as Italian
American Day in the State of New York; and be it further
