Cornyn Introduces Bipartisan Resolution Commemorating Cinco de Mayo

Senator Mark Udall and I introduced a bipartisan resolution today commemorating Cinco de Mayo. The resolution recognizes the historical significance of the 1862 Battle of Puebla and highlights the courage of Mexican forces against the invading French army.

On Cinco de Mayo we celebrate with our neighbors in Mexico the rich and diverse history of both of our nations and the bravery of a general from Goliad, Texas, who was willing to sacrifice everything for the cause of freedom. I am pleased to join Senator Udall in introducing this bipartisan resolution honoring Cinco de Mayo, which stands as a reminder of humanity’s enduring quest for freedom, and the power it has to inspire bravery, selflessness and greatness in all of us.

The resolution recognizes both the courage of Mexican forces against a powerful invader and the historical struggle for freedom of the people of Mexico.
