The California Assembly adopted House Resolution 102 on Thursday, designating October 2026 as Filipino American History Month and celebrating Filipino American contributions statewide.
Assemblymember Colosa introduced HR 102 and described the month as an opportunity to honor Filipino Americans’ history, culture, and civic contributions. "This resolution celebrates the rich culture, history, talent, and extraordinary contributions of Filipino Americans in our great state," the sponsor said when presenting the measure. Members from multiple caucuses — LGBTQ, Women's, Jewish, Black, Latino, and AAPI — offered supporting remarks that linked Filipino American history to labor organizing, health care, the arts, and civic leadership.
Co-authorship rolls added dozens of members and the resolution passed by voice vote. The measure is ceremonial and aims to encourage public programming and education; it does not change law or appropriate funds.
