SR 103 California Senate · 2023-2024 Regular Session

Relative to Italian American Heritage Month.

This Senate Resolution designates October 2024 and every subsequent October as Italian American Heritage Month in California to honor the state's significant Italian American population and their historical contributions. The measure encourages public schools to highlight Italian American achievements in social science textbooks and ethnic studies courses, aiming to increase awareness of their roles in industries like banking, agriculture, and wine. While the resolution does not mandate specific curriculum changes, it formally recognizes the group's impact on California's culture and economy and directs the Secretary of the Senate to share the text with relevant educational boards and school districts.
