Bill > HRes911

This resolution recognizes National Native American Heritage Month, which occurs annually from November 1-30, and celebrates the contributions, cultures, and experiences of Native Americans in the United States. The resolution highlights several key points, including the estimated 9.7 million Americans who identify as American Indian or Alaska Native, the rich cultural traditions and indigenous languages of Native American communities, and their significant contributions to fields such as agriculture, medicine, music, language, and art. The resolution also acknowledges Native Americans' historical and ongoing service in the Armed Forces, their influence on the U.S. Constitution's fundamental principles, and their unique experiences of tragedy and triumph. Furthermore, the resolution supports the recognition of both National Native American Heritage Month and Native American Heritage Day, and urges U.S. citizens to participate in appropriate programs and activities that honor and commemorate Native American heritage, while reaffirming the U.S. government's commitment to tribal self-governance, self-determination, and improving the lives of Native Americans.
