Honoring the contributions of Indian Americans and supporting the designation of July as “Indian American Heritage Month”.

Whereas, according to estimates published by the United States Census Bureau in 2023, more than 5,200,000 people in the United States identify as Indian American; Whereas the Indian American community traces its roots to a civilization more than 5,000 years old and has brought to the United States a rich legacy of art, literature, philosophy, science, and democratic traditions; Whereas, on July 2, 1946, President Harry S. Truman signed the Luce-Celler Act of 1946 (Public Law 79-483) into law, making persons of Indian descent eligible for naturalization as United States citizens; Whereas Indian Americans reflect one of the most religiously diverse communities in the United States, representing a wide range of faith traditions that strengthen the Nation’s cultural and spiritual fabric; Whereas Indian Americans have served with distinction at all levels of government and public service, including in every branch of the United States Armed Forces; Whereas Indian Americans have made pioneering contributions to science, medicine, biomedical research, space exploration, artificial intelligence, computing, telecommunications, and other fields of innovation that have improved lives and expanded human knowledge; Whereas Indian Americans have distinguished themselves in business, entrepreneurship, higher education, economic scholarship, journalism, literature, and philanthropy, contributing to the economic strength, intellectual life, and global leadership of the United States; Whereas Indian Americans have enriched the cultural fabric of the United States through music, film, television, the performing arts, cuisine, athletics, and the preservation and sharing of India’s diverse cultural, religious, linguistic, and regional traditions; and Whereas July provides an opportunity to recognize the history, achievements, cultural traditions, and diverse religious and regional identities of Indian Americans and to celebrate their many contributions to the United States: Now, therefore, be it Resolved, That the House of Representatives—
