Members and Friends,
As the sun rises today we should all be thankful for the freedoms we enjoy as a nation rich in diversity and dedicated to certain principles.
Those who served our nation in war and conflict deserve our sincere thanks and solemn remembrance for the sacrifices they made, some with injury and others who made the ultimate sacrifice and gave their lives.
As we go about our lives today, lets remember our veterans who have passed on and honor those who serve today with a prayer.
Lets cherish those still with us who have served and continue to serve their communities in other ways, for we have many in LULAC.
As an organization lets commit ourselves to supporting new initiatives to ensure that veterans get the best medical care and benefits afforded to them.
It’s our duty. Have a great day.
— Dave Rodriguez is state president of California LULAC (League of Latin American Citizens) and a member of the national board of directors.
