U.S. Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) today introduced the National Museum of the American Latino Act, legislation that would authorize the Smithsonian Institution to create a museum honoring American Latinos.

"The history and culture of American Latinos are ingrained in the fabric of this great nation," said Sen. Cornyn. "More than one third of the Texans I represent identify as Hispanic, and I'm proud to again join Sen. Menendez as we fight to honor their heritage with this first step for a museum."
