Presidential Proclamations & Related Sites
Since 2006, every President has issued an annual proclamation recognizing June as National Caribbean-American Heritage Month — with one notable exception in 2025.
2025 — No Proclamation Issued. For the first time since 2006, no presidential proclamation recognizing National Caribbean-American Heritage Month was issued in 2025 under the current administration. This is documented by academic and community sources and is a matter of public record.
