October - Filipino American History Month in Skokie
A resolution to nationally recognize Filipino American History Month, also known as Filipino American Heritage Month, was introduced in the United States 103rd Congress. The House of the 111th Congress introduced a House Resolution 155 (H. RES. 155) to officially recognize the month of October for Filipinos. In October 2009, the Senate of 111th Congress passed a resolution recognizing FAHM. In November 2009, Congress passed resolution (H.
