INDEPENDENCE
HON. J. LUIS CORREA
of california
in the house of representatives
Tuesday, May 12, 2026
Mr. CORREA. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to the lasting legacy of Zoroastrianism and acknowledge its significant contributions to human thought, which encompass early concepts of moral responsibility, justice, and the ongoing conflict between good and evil.
legacy that has shaped the perspectives of the American Founding Fathers, the creators of the Declaration of Independence, and the architects of the United States Constitution in establishing principles for governing a society that is multi-religious, multiracial, multi- ethnic, and multilingual, fostering peace and prosperity.
Zoroastrian communities globally and their ongoing contributions to diverse societies. The broader human pursuit of freedom, ethical governance, respect for human dignity, and women's equality—as well as legacies in trade, international commerce, and innovations such as early postal and passport systems—embody timeless Zoroastrian values that resonate throughout civilizations.
globe and honor their vibrant traditions, resilience, and unwavering commitment to the progress of humanity, history, and civilization on this significant occasion, commemorating the 250th anniversary of the Zoroastrian legacy in connection with American independence.
