On June 5, 2006, President George W. Bush issued a Proclamation designating June as Caribbean - American Heritage Month. Both the House and Senate, of the 109th Congress, unanimously approved H.Con.Res.71 on February 14, 2006. The measure was introduced by Rep. Barbara Lee (D-Oakland) with the help and support of the Institute of Caribbean Studies (ICS), Caribbean community leaders from across the nation, and friends of the Caribbean.
