I welcome the U.S. Senate passage of our bipartisan resolution recognizing September 15ththrough October 15thasHispanicHeritage Month. This is yet another opportunity to recognize the Latino community's great contributions to Nevada and this country, as well as acknowledge their role in building a stronger Nevada and nation,said Heller.More than one million Latinos call Nevada home, and our state is better off because of it. This month in particular we celebrate that."

HSIs are located in 21 states and Puerto Rico with emergingHispanic-Serving Institutions located in 33 States and the District of Columbia.
