On Tuesday April 24th in Albany, New York State Senator Boyle and Assemblyman Cusick have confirmed that during the afternoon session, there will be a special discussion on the floor of both the Assembly and then Senate on Legislative Resolutions honoring the 100th Anniversary of Ireland's Freedom Mandate Vote and also commending the AOH and LAOH for Irish-American contributions to America and Ireland. Above is a copy of the Resolution which should make all Hibernians proud. (click to enlarge)
The assembly Session should begin after 1 PM. We want as many areas around the state as possible to be represented. AOH and LAOH officers will be introduced from both the Senate and Assembly floor and your own state Senators and Assembly members may acknowledge and point out individual members they know by name from the floor.
We are then inviting Senators and Assembly members to join us for a special event at the Albany AOH Hall, 375 Ontario Street immediately following the Assembly and Senate sessions around 5pm. I am asking that all State,County and Division officers make an urgent action request for as many members as possible to attend the the Senate and Assembly sessions and AOH-LAOH event afterwards on April 24th.
Thank you,
In our Motto,
Dolores Desch
