Assembly Resolution No. 487
 
BY: M. of A. Cymbrowitz
 
        MEMORIALIZING Governor Andrew M. Cuomo to proclaim
        June  2,  2019, as Cancer Survivors Day in the State
        of New York
 
  WHEREAS, Cancer is a medical, social,  psychological,  and  economic
issue;  each and every day, people make decisions affecting the lives of
millions who are suffering from, or are close  to  someone  who  suffers
from, cancer; and
 
  WHEREAS,  Today,  with  over 16.9 million Americans surviving cancer
each year, as a result of revolutionary  advances  in  early  detection,
research  studies  and treatment, we have the opportunity to pay tribute
to cancer survivors and their families; and
 
  WHEREAS, In order to promote awareness of cancer, on Sunday, June 2,
2019, communities across New York State will celebrate life as  part  of
the world's largest Cancer Survivors event; this special day also honors
those who have lost their battle with cancer; and
 
  WHEREAS,  It is a day when we come together to commemorate the daily
struggles  which  cancer  patients,  survivors,   and   their   families
experience,  a  day which makes all of us aware that cancer is a disease
without boundaries; crossing the lines of color, race,  creed,  sex  and
age, it is an unbiased disease which affects not only the lives of those
inflicted with the disease, but their loved ones as well; and
 
  WHEREAS,  On  this  day,  New  York residents will be able to make a
difference and applaud survivors for overcoming this illness; it will be
a day of lamentation for those who  lost  their  lives,  and  a  day  of
rejoicing for those who have conquered it; and
 
  WHEREAS,  The  people of New York State salute all cancer survivors,
and individuals and groups which promote awareness of this  disease  and
the  need  for  a cure; these organizations put their daily efforts into
educating  and  informing  our  entire  society;  their  hard  work  and
dedication  are  recognized  on  this  day as an undertaking which is an
everlasting endeavor; now, therefore, be it
 
  RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its  deliberations  to
memorialize Governor Andrew M. Cuomo to proclaim June 2, 2019, as Cancer
Survivors Day in the State of New York; and be it further
 
  RESOLVED,  That  copies  of  this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be
transmitted to The Honorable Andrew M. Cuomo, Governor of the  State  of
New  York;  and the New York Cancer Center, 379 Kings Highway, Brooklyn,
New York 11223.
