Valadao | V000129 | valadao.house.gov | valadao | https://valadao.house.gov/news/documentquery.aspx?DocumentTypeID=27 | scraper | WASHINGTON – Today, Congressman David Valadao (CA-22) and Congressman Jim Costa (CA-21) reintroduced a resolution to formally recognize June as Portuguese National Heritage Month. This resolution highlights the countless contributions that millions of Portuguese Americans have made to our nation. “Like many Portuguese Americans, my parents came to the United States from the Azores Islands of Portugal in pursuit of the American Dream and greater opportunities for their children,” said Congressman Valadao. “That same determination has inspired generations of Portuguese Americans to make lasting contributions to our communities here in the Central Valley and across the nation. As co-chair of the Congressional Portuguese Caucus, I’m honored to recognize the impact of the Portuguese American community by formally designating June as Portuguese National Heritage Month.” “I’m honored to represent a community with deep Portuguese roots. As the grandson of Portuguese immigrants, I have seen firsthand the values of hard work, family, and perseverance that have shaped generations of Portuguese Americans,” said Rep. Costa. “As we celebrate America’s 250th anniversary, we recognize the lasting contributions Portuguese Americans have made to the San Joaquin Valley and our nation, as well as the enduring friendship between the United States and Portugal.” Read the full resolution here. ### | 1 | 2026-06-25T06:30:03Z | 2026-06-25T06:31:21Z |
