President Jimmy Carter signed a joint resolution for the celebration on October 5, 1978. On May 1, 2009, President Barack Obama signed Proclamation 8369, recognizing the month of May as Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month.
Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month (AAPI Heritage Month) is an annual celebration that recognizes the historical and cultural contributions of individuals and groups of Asian and Pacific Islander descent to the United States.
During this month, Teledyne Technologies Incorporated is spotlighting some of our talented Asian American & Pacific Islander colleagues across the globe. Join us in recognizing their contributions and thank them for their service to the Company.
