Greetings

Welcome to Washington D.C.

We are having one year anniversary cerebration of passing the ¡°Korean American Day¡± Resolution from both the House and Senate on December 8^th, 2006

Over the past century, Korean immigrants have reached more than 2 million people in the United States.

Now more than ever, it is an indubitable fact that American of Korean descent has become a thriving part of our nation, playing pivotal roles within our county¡¯s history, politic, and economy. The passing the ¡°Korean American Day¡± Resolution in Congress at last year December was a turning point for American of Korean heritage as fundamental players within mainstream America.

I am confident that the spirit of Korean American Day will not only remind us of our heritage, but guide us for the future generation of American of Korean descent, as we continue to merge into the dynamic and richly diverse society of this blessed nation.

Enjoy your stay in the Capital City and Celebrate the Anniversary.

Chair, / Korean American Day National Committee
