                Proclamation 9927 of September 13, 2019

                
National Hispanic Heritage Month, 2019

                By the President of the United States of America

                A Proclamation

                National Hispanic Heritage Month celebrates the 
                accomplishments of Hispanic Americans, who have 
                enriched our culture and society and helped make 
                America into the incredible country it is today. 
                Hispanic-American men and women embody the American 
                values of devotion to faith and family, hard work, and 
                patriotism through their countless contributions as 
                leaders, innovators, entrepreneurs, and members of our 
                Armed Forces.

                Since I took office, Hispanic-American unemployment 
                rates and poverty rates have hit record lows. My 
                Administration is always working to create an 
                environment that fosters opportunity for all Americans. 
                That is why I signed the pro-growth Tax Cuts and Jobs 
                Act, which has put more money in the pockets of 
                American workers and has given businesses more money to 
                invest in their employees. This historic legislation 
                also created Opportunity Zones that are driving 
                investment toward and revitalizing distressed 
                communities. My Administration has slashed unnecessary 
                and burdensome regulations to allow entrepreneurs to 
                use their creativity to contribute to our economic 
                growth. Our thriving economy is enabling more Hispanic 
                Americans to achieve the American Dream.

                Additionally, we have worked to strengthen our economic 
                and political relationship with our Latin American 
                partners. We successfully renegotiated the North 
                American Free Trade Agreement with the signing of the 
                United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA), a trade 
                deal that will benefit all parties and American 
                workers. Once approved by the Congress, USMCA will 
                protect jobs, ensure fair trade, bolster our economies, 
                and allow our nations to prosper. We have also worked 
                to support liberty by standing with the community of 
                democracies in the Western Hemisphere against the 
                authoritarian regimes in Venezuela, Cuba, and 
                Nicaragua. The United States has strong security and 
                economic interests in a safe and prosperous Latin 
                America.

                This month, we honor Hispanic Americans for their 
                countless contributions to our Nation. Through their 
                dedication to family, community, and our country, they 
                help to build a better future for all Americans. To 
                honor the achievements of Hispanic Americans, the 
                Congress, by Public Law 100-402, as amended, has 
                authorized and requested the President to issue 
                annually a proclamation designating September 15 
                through October 15 as ``National Hispanic Heritage 
                Month.''

                NOW, THEREFORE, I, DONALD J. TRUMP, President of the 
                United States of America, by virtue of the authority 
                vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the 
                United States, do hereby proclaim September 15 through 
                October 15, 2019, as National Hispanic Heritage Month. 
                I call upon public officials, educators, librarians, 
                and all Americans to observe this month with 
                appropriate ceremonies, activities, and programs.

                IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this
