S T A T E O F N E W Y O R K ________________________________________________________________________ 9524 I N A S S E M B L Y March 10, 2016 ___________ Introduced by M. of A. DenDEKKER -- read once and referred to the Committee on Governmental Operations AN ACT to create a temporary New York State World War I 100th anniver- sary commemoration commission; and providing for the termination of such commission THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM- BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. Legislative findings. The legislature hereby finds that Armistice Day has been marked on November 11th every year since 1918 commemorating the day the Allied forces signed an agreement with the Germans that would end World War I. The cost in human suffering during World War I, originally known as the Great War, was on a scale unprecedented in human history. Between 1914 and 1918, there were over 37 million casualties with over 13,000 New Yorkers losing their lives. Among the noteworthy New York regiments fighting in World War I include New York's 69th Infantry Regiment, referred to as the "Fighting 69th" and New York's 369th Infantry Regiment, popularly known as the "Harlem Hellfighters", the first African American regiment to serve with the American Expeditionary Forces during World War I. There are several sites in New York with historical significance to World War I including: the Pier A clock tower in Battery Park, the armory of the 14th New York regiment in Park Slope, the Chelsea World War I statute on 9th and 28th, the 7th Regiment statute in Central Park, the Brooklyn World War I memo- rial in Prospect Park, the Richmond Hill statute in Queens, and others. The legislature, therefore, declares that there is a need to create a New York State World War I 100th anniversary commemoration commission to develop and execute plans for projects and activities recognizing the 100th year anniversary of World War I, with particular emphasis on those New Yorkers who made the supreme sacrifice and those who returned home wounded. S 2. New York State World War I 100th anniversary commemoration commission created. (1) There is hereby a temporary state commission to be known as the "New York State World War I 100th anniversary commem- oration commission". EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets [ ] is old law to be omitted.
