Celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month
Today marks the beginning of a month long celebration of Americans of Hispanic descent whose talents, accomplishments and cultures have strengthened our country.
We celebrate a community that understands the American dream as well as any because either they or someone in their family came to the United States to achieve dreams that would be impossible to realize where they were born. These individuals knew that in America, anyone can strive to fulfill their dreams and even more importantly they were confident that in this country, they could open doors for their children that were closed to them. They remind us that the American dream is as alive today as it ever has been.
During this same time, we are reminded of the dangerous world and challenging economic time we live in. We salute the over 1.2 million Hispanic men and women who have fought and are fighting for our freedoms in our armed forces.
As our nation faces stubbornly high unemployment, we also continue to see a rising poverty rate in the Hispanic community. Now more than ever, we must fight for pro-growth policies that will allow my generation to leave our children a stronger and more prosperous America than the one we inherited from our parents.
Hispanic Heritage Month is a time to celebrate the American Dream. We celebrate the over 2 million Hispanic-owned businesses all across the country. We celebrate the millions of Americans of Hispanic descent – like my parents – who came from other countries, worked hard and made possible a world of almost limitless opportunity. We celebrate a community where the number of young adults enrolling in college has grown by 200,000 in the last year and has reached a record 16.5 percent share of all college enrollments. We also remember how blessed we are to live in a country where success is not limited by the circumstances of one’s birth.
I am proud to be an American of Cuban descent – the son of immigrants, raised in a community of immigrants – and join in this month long celebration of the remarkable contributions of the Hispanic community to America’s exceptionalism and the strength of the common values that unite us all.

Celebrando el Mes de la Herencia Hispana
Por Senador Marco Rubio
Hoy marca el comienzo de un mes de celebración en nombre de la comunidad hispana en Estados Unidos cuyos talentos, acontecimientos y culturas han reforzado a nuestra nación.
Celebramos a una comunidad que entiende bien lo que es vivir el sueño americano – porque alguien en su familia si no ellos mismos vinieron a este país para realizar sueños que serían imposibles realizar donde nacieron.
Estos individuos sabían que, en Estados Unidos, cualquier persona puede esforzarse para cumplir sus sueños y poder darles a sus hijos todas las oportunidades especiales que ellos no tuvieron en sus países de origen. Ellos nos recuerdan que el sueño americano sigue vivo.
Al mismo tiempo, estamos concientes que vivimos en un mundo peligroso marcado por incertitud económica. De este modo, le rendimos tributo a más de un millón de hombres y mujeres hispanos quienes han luchado ó actualmente luchan por nuestra libertad en las fuerzas armadas.
Mientras nuestra nación enfrenta alto desempleo e incertidumbre económica, tambien vemos que la pobreza dentro de la comunidad hispana va aumentando. Ahora más que nunca, necesitamos luchar por leyes efectivas que permitirán a mi generación continuar la gran tradición del poder dejar a nuestros hijos un país más fuerte y próspero del que nosotros heredamos de nuestros padres.
El Mes de la Herencia Hispana es un tiempo dedicado a la celebración del sueño americano. Durante este mes, celebramos a los más de dos millones de negociantes hispanos por todo el país. Celebramos a los millones de hispano americanos como mis propios padres, quienes vinieron de sus países de origen, trabajaron duro y crearon oportunidades para sus hijos que ellos mismos no tuvieron. Celebramos a una comunidad en la cual el número de jóvenes matriculando en la universidad ha crecido por 200,000 en el último año. Es más, la comunidad hispano Americana representa 16.5 por ciento de la matriculación total universitaria en este país.
Yo soy orgulloso de ser un americano de descendencia cubana – un hijo de inmigrantes, criado en una comunidad de inmigrantes – y de poder participar en este mes que reconoce los acontecimientos extraordinarios de la comunidad hispana, y que nos recuerda del excepcionalismo americano, uno de los principios novedosos que destaca este país en el escenario mundial.
