           SUMMARY  :  Proclaims May 2 through May 8, 2010, as Cinco de Mayo  
          Week and urges all Californians to join in celebrating Cinco de  
          Mayo.  Specifically,  this resolution  makes the following  
          legislative findings:  

          1)Cinco de Mayo, or the fifth of May, is memorialized as a  
            significant date in the history of California and Mexico in  
            recognition of the courage of the Mexican people, who defeated  
            a better trained and better equipped army at the "Batalla de  
            Puebla." 

          2)Achievements by Latinos in America and California include  
            contributions to all facets of our community. 

          3)Cinco de Mayo offers an opportunity to reflect on the courage  
            and achievements not only of the Mexican forces at Puebla, but  
            also on the courage and achievements of Latinos here in  
            California.
