    For our final #IrishAmericanoftheWeek for 2022 we're looking at Bruce Springsteen. While the singer may have been "Born in the U.S.A.", Springsteen's family tree can be traced back to County Kildare, his ancestors emigrated from Ireland in 1853

    Our #IrishAmericanOfTheWeek is Dr. Kathy Sullivan, who was the first U.S. woman to do a space walk. She also became the first woman to explore the deepest point of earth’s ocean. Sullivan was born in New Jersey but her grandfather came to the U.S. from Kerry.

    An interesting insight into politics in Northern Ireland, hosted by Speaker @AlexMaskeySF with representatives from the 5 main parties in Northern Ireland held today in Stormont. #AISLC #AmericanIrish @niassembly
    Highlights from the Speaker's opening remarks at today's @AmericanIrishSL event in Parliament Buildings. The Speaker welcomed the delegation and spoke about the importance of the visit in "establishing further building blocks of cooperation."
