Since then, the nation has come together to pass legislation in Congress and celebrate the Proclamation of Jewish American Heritage Month (JAHM) by the President of the United States. Jewish American Heritage Month (JAHM) is a national month of recognition of the more than 350-year history of Jewish contributions to American culture, celebrated in May.
