The resolution was introduced late last month by its sponsor Senate Majority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.), and cosponsors, Senators Bill Cassidy (R-La.) and Alex Padilla (D-Calif.).Īs noted by The Hill, the resolution "encourages senators to plan celebratory activities that commemorate hip-hop's cultural influence in the U.S. "Hip-hop transcend many different ages, ethnicities, religions, locations, political affiliations, and socioeconomic statuses, which demonstrates the melting-pot quality of Hip Hop art and culture," the bill, which marks the first-ever resolution to recognize hip-hop as a whole, states.
