HRES 547 United States House · 119th Congress

Recognizing the significance of "National Caribbean American Heritage Month".

HRES 547 is a symbolic resolution recognizing June as National Caribbean American Heritage Month. It does not create new laws or directly affect any individuals or groups; instead, it encourages the public to observe the month through ceremonies and celebrations. The resolution affirms that Caribbean Americans' contributions are integral to U.S. history, progress, and cultural diversity. It supports the month's goals and highlights the community's longstanding role in American society, from historical figures like Alexander Hamilton to modern leaders like Kamala Harris. As a non-binding resolution, it has no legal effect but serves to honor this cultural observance.
