          SUMMARY:  Proclaims October 17, 2015, as California Firefighters  
          Memorial Day.  Specifically, this resolution makes the following  
          legislative findings:


          1)The California Firefighters Memorial, located on the grounds  
            of the State Capitol, serves to honor and commemorate  
            California firefighters who unwaveringly serve our great state  
            with pride, courage, and honor.
          2)The California Firefighters Memorial is also a symbol of  








                                                                     ACR 90


                                                                    Page  2





            gratitude and appreciation to the men and women of the fire  
            service who put their lives on the line each day to protect  
            the people, property, and beauty of California.


          3)Many of the 1,250 fallen firefighters whose names adorn the  
            California Firefighters Memorial suffered and ultimately  
            succumbed to diseases, such as cancer, as a result of the  
            hazardous nature of their work, including routine exposure to  
            toxic chemicals.


          4)On October 17, 2015, firefighters and their families from  
            throughout the state will gather in Sacramento with their  
            fellow Californians for the 2015 California Firefighters  
            Memorial Ceremony to honor the men and women of the fire  
            service who have given their lives to protect California.
