This law lets the President declare a yearly Pan American Aviation Day. It falls on December 17. The proclamation invites officials and citizens to promote aviation ties across the Western Hemisphere.

The President may — but does not have to — issue a proclamation each year with two parts. First, it names December 17 as Pan American Aviation Day. Second, it calls on federal officials, the top officials of every U.S. state, territory, and possession, and all citizens to take part in observing the day. The purpose is to build interest in aviation among countries in the Americas, as a way to encourage faster communication and stronger cultural ties across the Western Hemisphere.
