Cinco De Mayo
Floor Speech
Issues: Arts, Entertainment, and History
Mr. REID. Mr. President, today I wish everyone, especially Mexican Americans across the country and in Nevada, a happy Cinco de Mayo. All Americans, regardless of background, join with the Mexican-American community in commemorating the causes of freedom, liberty, and Hispanic heritage represented by this holiday.
There are celebrations all over America today. Driving to work this morning, I saw a couple of people with great big sombreros wanting to come to one of the celebrations in and around
Washington. So this is a wonderful holiday we all celebrate.
