H.Res. 169 — Recognizing the Dominican community's presence and contributions to Washington Heights and Inwood.

This section supports the designation of a noncontiguous Dominican cultural heritage district under the National Park Service to acknowledge the contributions of the Dominican community to New York City, New York State, and the Nation. It recognizes the cultural legacy of the Dominican community in Washington Heights and Inwood, honors the contributions of Dominican-American elected officials, artists, small business and bodega owners, writers, and trailblazers, supports preservation of historic buildings and districts, and commits to opposing displacement, gentrification, and other factors threatening low- and moderate-income residents in Washington Heights.
