Statement from HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra on National Hispanic Heritage Month
Today, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra issued the following statement to mark the beginning of National Hispanic Heritage Month:
Like my parents, there are millions of Hispanics across the country who also seek no favors. They work tirelessly and tenaciously, abide by this nation’s rules, and they nurture their children with opportunities that they themselves could only dream of. Our mission at HHS is to help make those dreams a reality by extending access to good health and wellbeing.
