Proclamation 9761 of May 31, 2018

National Homeownership Month, 2018

By the President of the United States of America

A Proclamation

During National Homeownership Month, we affirm the joy and benefits of
homeownership. For millions of Americans, owning a home is an

important step toward financial security and achieving the American
Dream. My Administration is committed to fostering an economic
environment in which every family has the opportunity to enjoy the sense
of pride and stability that can come with owning a home.
Our Nation's economy is experiencing tremendous growth. I signed into
law historic tax reform that cut taxes for middle class Americans and
small businesses. My Administration has also slashed unnecessary and
burdensome regulations that stunted economic growth. As a result of
these actions, Americans are keeping more of their hard-earned
paychecks, unemployment rates are at historic lows, and more Americans
are entering the workforce. Consequently, owning a home is becoming more
attainable for many Americans.
Numerous benefits are associated with homeownership. Owning a home gives
Americans a place to call their own, and a place of comfort and safety
where they can raise their families. Homeowners also support local
businesses, have a strong vested interest in their communities, and
foster bonds of friendship with others who live and work in their
neighborhoods. A home is more than a place to live--it is also an
investment in family, in community, and in the long-term prosperity of
our great country.
This month, we celebrate those Americans whose success and determination
have helped make them homeowners. Their dedication to their families and
communities, and to achieving a brighter and more secure future, is an
inspiration to each person who is pursuing their own American Dream.
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 June 2018 as National
Homeownership Month.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this thirty-first day of
May, in the year of our Lord two thousand eighteen, and of the
Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and forty-
second.
DONALD J. TRUMP
