I believe that there is already such a thing.

Quote
Jewish American Heritage Month (JAHM) is the remembrance of Jewish American contributions and of the history (past, present, and future) of Jewish Americans in the United States of America. It is celebrated in the U.S. and is held annually in the month of May.[1]

JAHM was set into law by President George W. Bush in 2006, according to the Jewish American Heritage Month Coalition. This is the achievement of Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL) and Sen. Arlen Specter (D-PA), as well as the Jewish Museum of South Florida and the South Florida Jewish Community.[2]
You shall make yourself the Festival of Sukkoth for seven days, when you gather in [the produce] from your threshing floor and your vat.And you shall rejoice in your Festival-you, and your son, and your daughter, and your manservant, and your maidservant, and the Levite, and the stranger, and the orphan, and the widow, who are within your cities
Duet 16:13-14
