“nations throughout the world, especially within Latin America, celebrate Dia De los Ninos on the 30th of April, in recognition and celebration of their country's future--their children. Many American Hispanic families continue the tradition of honoring their children on this day by celebrating Dia De los Ninos in their homes. The designation of a day to honor the children of the Nation will help affirm for the people of the United States the significance of family, education, and community. This special recognition of children will provide us with an opportunity to reflect on our future, articulate our dreams and aspirations, and find comfort and security in the support of our family members and communities. This resolution calls on the American people to join with all children, families, organizations, communities, churches, cities, and States across the Nation to observe the day with appropriate ceremonies and activities. I thank my colleagues for supporting America's youth by supporting this resolution designating April 30, 2003, Dia De los Ninos: Celebrating Young Americans.”
