This bill establishes a new section in the North Dakota Century Code to designate May of each year as "Military Appreciation Month." It mandates that the governor issue a proclamation on May 1st to honor the men and women of the United States Armed Forces, recognizing their service, contributions, and sacrifices in defending the nation and preserving freedom.

The intent of this legislation is to formally acknowledge and celebrate the dedication of military personnel, both past and present, by creating a dedicated month for appreciation and recognition. This initiative aims to foster a greater awareness and respect for the sacrifices made by service members in the community.
