SUMMARY: Proclaims May 16, 2016, as California Holocaust
Memorial Day and would urge Californians to observe this day of
remembrance for the victims of the Holocaust in an appropriate
manner. Specifically, this resolution makes the following
legislative findings:
1)More than 70 years have passed since the tragic events we now
call the Holocaust transpired, in which six million Jews and
five million others were murdered as part of a carefully
orchestrated, state-sponsored program of cultural, social, and
political annihilation under Nazi tyranny.

2)We must recognize the heroism of those who provided assistance
to the victims of the Nazi regime and teach our children and
future generations that acts of heroism during the Holocaust
serve as a powerful example of how our nation and its citizens
can, and must, respond to acts of hatred and inhumanity.
3)The United States Holocaust Memorial Council recognizes the
Days of Remembrance of the Victims of the Holocaust, including
the Day of Remembrance, known as Yom Hashoah.
FISCAL EFFECT: None
