|---|
| 5 | 6 | | WHEREAS, May 2019 has been set aside as Asian American and |
|---|
| 6 | 7 | | Pacific Islander Heritage Month to recognize the accomplishments |
|---|
| 7 | 8 | | and wide-ranging contributions of individuals who trace their |
|---|
| 8 | 9 | | ancestry to Asia and the Pacific Islands; and |
|---|
| 9 | 10 | | WHEREAS, Originally established by the United States |
|---|
| 10 | 11 | | Congress as Asian-Pacific American Heritage Week, the observance |
|---|
| 11 | 12 | | celebrates the diverse culture, traditions, and history of people |
|---|
| 12 | 13 | | from the Asian continent and the islands of Melanesia, Micronesia, |
|---|
| 13 | 14 | | and Polynesia in the Pacific; it was officially expanded into a |
|---|
| 14 | 15 | | monthlong celebration in 1992; and |
|---|
| 15 | 16 | | WHEREAS, The month of May was chosen for this commemorative |
|---|
| 16 | 17 | | period because of two key events in our nation's history; on May 7, |
|---|
| 17 | 18 | | 1843, the first Japanese immigrants arrived, and on May 10, 1869, a |
|---|
| 18 | 19 | | workforce largely composed of Chinese laborers completed the |
|---|
| 19 | 20 | | Transcontinental Railroad; and |
|---|
| 20 | 21 | | WHEREAS, In 2013, the Pew Research Center released a report |
|---|
| 21 | 22 | | highlighting the tremendous progress that has been made by Asian |
|---|
| 22 | 23 | | Americans; the study noted that a century ago, most were |
|---|
| 23 | 24 | | low-skilled, low-wage laborers subject to official discrimination; |
|---|
| 24 | 25 | | today, however, Asian Americans rank as the racial group with the |
|---|
| 25 | 26 | | highest levels of income and education in the nation; since |
|---|
| 26 | 27 | | approximately 2000, Asian Americans have also constituted the |
|---|
| 27 | 28 | | fastest-growing racial group in the United States, largely because |
|---|
| 28 | 29 | | of immigration; in addition, Asians who have recently arrived in |
|---|
| 29 | 30 | | this country are about three times more likely than other |
|---|
| 30 | 31 | | immigrants to be sponsored for permanent residency by an employer; |
|---|
| 31 | 32 | | the Pew report further noted that over 60 percent of new Asian |
|---|
| 32 | 33 | | immigrants age 25 to 64 held at least a bachelor's degree; and |
|---|
| 33 | 34 | | WHEREAS, The Lone Star State is home to generations of |
|---|
| 34 | 35 | | Americans who take great pride in their family roots in Asia and the |
|---|
| 35 | 36 | | Pacific Islands, and this annual observance provides a welcome |
|---|
| 36 | 37 | | opportunity to celebrate their significant contributions to the |
|---|
| 37 | 38 | | prosperity and cultural vibrancy of our nation; now, therefore, be |
|---|
| 38 | 39 | | it |
|---|
| 39 | 40 | | RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 86th Texas |
|---|
| 40 | 41 | | Legislature hereby recognize May 2019 as Asian American and Pacific |
|---|
| 41 | 42 | | Islander Heritage Month. |
