                                Skinner, Nancy, Chair
                  ACR 3 (Hayashi) - As Introduced:  January 6, 2011
           
          SUBJECT  :   Korean-American Day.

           SUMMARY  :   Proclaims January 13, 2011, as Korean-American Day.  
          Specifically,  this resolution  makes the following legislative 
          findings:  

          1)On January 13, 1903, the history of Korean immigration to 
            America began as 102 courageous Korean men, women, and 
            children ventured across the Pacific Ocean aboard the S.S. 
            Gaelic to land in Hawaii.

          2)While the first Korean immigrants fought and sacrificed to 
            establish themselves in the United States, their children grew 
            up to be patriotic American citizens, served in the Armed 
            Forces of the United States during World War II, and made 
            other important contributions to mainstream America.

          3)As the Korean-American community prepares for a new era and 
            creates new history, Korean Americans must instill in the 
            upcoming generations an appreciation for and pride in their 
            own cultural heritage so that they may better contribute to 
            the great State of California.
