Speaker. each year in June. we celebrate our strong relationship with the Caribbean nations and appreciate the value and diversity they bring to the United States. We value National CaribbeanAmerican Heritage Month and encourage people from across the country to join with those of CaribbeanAmerican roots in these celebrations. From as far back as the 17th century. citizens from the Caribbean have immigrated to the U.S. Many were slaves. who faced the same obstacles struggling for equality and independence. We are a Nation of immigrants. and this bill emphasizes the many contributions of Caribbean immigrants to our society. Over 5 million Americans proudly share the Caribbean heritage in promoting and attending Caribbeanstyle festivals around the country. These festivals appreciate the rich culture. history and diversity brought forth through the joining of these two nations.
