This resolution highlights the significance of the Lunar New Year, which is celebrated on the second new moon after the winter solstice and is an important cultural event for many Asian communities. The resolution emphasizes the importance of this celebration in fostering community, diversity, and cultural appreciation among Asian American populations in Wisconsin, including both long-standing residents and recent immigrants.

The resolution also notes the symbolic meanings associated with the Year of the Snake, which include good luck, rebirth, and regality. It encourages all Wisconsinites to recognize and learn about the rich cultural traditions of Asian American communities, promoting a spirit of togetherness and equity within the state. By proclaiming 2025 as the Year of the Snake, the Wisconsin Legislature aims to honor these cultural values and the contributions of Asian Americans to the state's identity.
