Madam Speaker. I am proud to rise today to recognize and celebrate the 80th birthday of C6sar E. Chavez. Cesar Chivez was born in Yuma. Arizona. and grew up in migrant labor camps. into the poverty of the migrant workers life. He became an historical figure who embodied humility and extraordinary strength during his peaceful struggle towards social justice. He was an individual who represented the ones who had less and had no representation whatsoever. He dedicated his entire life to tirelessly championing the rights of the farm laborers. and along with him was Dolores Huerta. also founder of the United Farm Workers union. fighting for better wages and conditions for those individuals that pick our fruit and feed our Nation.
