President. since being elected to the Senate I have had the distinct honor to offer a resolution designating a week during the year as "Jewish Heritage Week." This resolution designates the week of May 3 to May 10. 1987. for this purpose. The United States prides itself on its diverse heritage. This rich and colorful heritage results from the values and ideals brought to our Nation by the people of a multitude of races and religions. Among these immigrants. the Jewish community contributed significantly to the cultural and spiritual growth of a new nation. Many members of the Jewish community have brought distinction and honor to virtually every field of endeavor. including the arts. humanities. and sciences. Our Jewish citizens have fought and died to preserve and to protect the freedom for which the United States stands.
