RECOGNIZING JUNE 2026 AS “CARIBBEAN AMERICAN HERITAGE MONTH” IN THE STATE OF DELAWARE.

This bill designates June 2026 as "Caribbean American Heritage Month" within the State of Delaware. It directly affects state government entities and encourages public acknowledgment of Caribbean American contributions during that month. The primary mechanism is a formal resolution passed by both the House and Senate to officially recognize the date. This action serves as a commemorative measure rather than establishing new laws or funding.
