During National Hispanic Heritage Month, the United States recognizes the contributions of Hispanic-American citizens throughout history. President Donald J. Trump issued a proclamation designating September 15 through October 15, 2025, as National Hispanic Heritage Month.
"Hispanic-American patriots have served on the front lines of our military, law enforcement, border security, and in public service. They have enlivened our communities and enthusiastically embodied our national promise — defending our sovereignty, protecting our flag, and living out the eternal values of faith, family, and freedom. Every day, my Administration is working tirelessly to bring opportunity, prosperity, and success to citizens of every background," President Trump stated.
The proclamation highlights the achievements of Hispanic Americans in various sectors including culture and economy. "As we celebrate National Hispanic Heritage Month, we recognize the resounding strength and success of the Hispanic-American community. We honor their tremendous contributions to our culture, economy, and future. Above all, we recommit to making America stronger and greater than ever before," said Trump.
Congress has authorized this annual observance through Public Law 100-402 as amended. The President called on public officials, educators, librarians, and all Americans to observe this month with appropriate ceremonies and activities.
"In witness whereof, I have hereunto set my hand this twenty-second day of September, in the year of our Lord two thousand twenty-five," President Trump concluded.
