Summary

The Assembly adopted resolutions designating Feb. 14 as PS I Love You Day and February as American Heart Month, and extended floor privileges to visiting guests, including a rabbi marking the 50th Tu B'Shevat observance and a U.S. Army veteran liaison.

The Assembly took and adopted several ceremonial resolutions and introduced visiting guests. Resolution A.101, presented by Assemblymember Durso, asked the governor to proclaim Feb. 14, 2025, as PS I Love You Day to raise awareness about mental health and suicide prevention; the House adopted the resolution by voice vote.

Durso recounted the origin of the day and urged colleagues to remember those struggling. "Remember, if you're struggling, please ask for help," Durso said. The Assembly also adopted a resolution requesting the governor recognize February 2025 as American Heart Month.

Members introduced visiting guests to the chamber: Rabbi Reuben Israel was welcomed to observe Tu B'Shevat milestones and the Assembly extended privileges of the floor to representatives from Saint Bonaventure University's HEOP program and visitors from the Steuben County Office for the Aging.
