Write to the President
What is a Presidential Proclamation?
A Presidential Proclamation is a special document signed by the President that recognizes a commemorative day, week, or month.
A President will only issue a proclamation when A LOT of U.S citizens send in request letters…the more, the better! Clinton was the first and only President to recognize American Eagle Day in 1995. Presidential Proclamations do not automatically renew from year to year and have to be annually re-proclaimed unless required by the U.S. Congress. In addition to making a 2019 Proclamation request to the President, make sure to Write to Congress to help us achieve a Congressional Resolution that will require the President to proclaim it year after year.
