| Item Title: | Proclamation: National American Indian Heritage Month | | Item Type: | Consent | | Background: | National American Indian Heritage Month celebrates and recognizes the accomplishments of the peoples who were the original inhabitants, explorers and settlers of the United States. In 1990, Congress passed legislation which authorized and requested the President to issue a proclamation designating the month of November as National American Indian Heritage Month. Congress chose the month of November to recognize the American Indians as this month concluded the traditional harvest season and was generally a time of thanksgiving and celebration for some American Indians. Tonight we ask the Board to recognize November as National American Indian Heritage Month. | | Goals: | Routine Matter | | Fund: | | | Fund Codes: | | Fiscal Analysis
