proclamation for ‘‘Jewish Heritage Week’’, and in that 
proclamation, President Carter spoke about the bountiful 
contributions made by the Jewish people to the culture

Whereas Congress has played a central role in recognizing 
‘‘Jewish American Heritage Month’’ since the House of 
Representatives and Senate passed resolutions in 2005 
and 2006, respectively, urging the President to proclaim 
the national observation of a month recognizing the Jew-
ish-American community; 
Whereas, since 2006, Presidents Bush, Obama, Trump, and
