The Governor annually shall proclaim January 27 as Maryland Holocaust Remembrance Day. The proclamation shall declare Maryland Holocaust Remembrance Day: a day of reflection, recollection, and determination for Maryland families, educators, religious communities, political bodies, and media to remember the human tragedy that is the Holocaust; and a pledge to spread the lessons and the reality of the Holocaust to future generations in an effort to ensure that we never forget and bear witness to the mass slaughter of human beings as a consequence of prejudice, bigotry, ignorance, and hate.
