The goal of National Passport Month is to spread the word about the importance of travel and the positive life-changing effect it can have on individuals, our nation and the world. Our hope is that each September, more and more people will get involved in National Passport Month - helping significantly increase the number of Americans with passports over time. Owning a passport is an opportunity; a key to discovering the adventure, joy and knowledge of all cultures.

We are working with Congress to have National Passport Month officially proclaimed. Please sign the petition below to voice your support.

"I think National Passport Month is a much-needed and timely effort. As someone who didn't own a passport or leave the country until he was 25, I know what a mind-expanding experience international travel can be."
