Thanksgiving Day Message
From Roman Palomares
LULAC National President and CEO
================================
On this Thanksgiving Day, we pause to give thanks for the countless blessings
LULAC has received over the past 96 years. Through the generations, we have built
a legacy of service and advocacy that has transformed lives and uplifted
communities across the United States and Puerto Rico. We are fast approaching a
historic milestone, our next century of service, and with it, LULACs evolving
role.
Every LULAC member is always at the center of our team’s work in Washington, and
you make all the difference because of your dedication. Also, as I travel
throughout the United States, your work clearly shows the true power of unity and
deep caring that defines LULAC. You are the heart of this organization, and
because of you, our mission continues to thrive and expand.
This year, we responded to challenges with courage and purpose. In the wake of
devastating hurricanes, I joined with LULAC leaders in Florida who stepped into
action, meeting with residents, listening to their needs, and taking their voices
to FEMA to ensure swift assistance. Our members consistently lead the charge,
offering hope and solutions in times of crisis.
In Texas, Arizona, California, Nevada, Georgia, and everywhere else, LULAC
members energized our democracy through a historic voter registration and civic
engagement campaign. Yes, the new generation of members emerging in places like
Kansas and Oklahoma and the continued service of longtime LULACers everywhere
gives me great hope for our future.
Our work has extended to those who have sacrificed for this country, including
deported veterans. In Juárez, Mexico, we recently joined with other LULAC
leaders. Meeting with these brave individuals reaffirms my commitment to show
they are not forgotten and to keep fighting to bring them home. Likewise, in
cities like Omaha, Nebraska, LULAC councils are sacrificing tirelessly to form
new partnerships with law enforcement so Latinos are protected and valued in
their neighborhoods.
From Illinois, we spearhead the foundation for the future through innovation and
technology. LULAC is committed to preparing the next generation through our Youth
and Young Adult councils and mentorship programs, equipping young Latinos with
the skills and confidence to seize tomorrow’s possibilities. Education will be
critical to opening doors for our communities, and LULAC is there to guide and
support them.
You are channeling your dedication into action from New York State to California.
The road ahead is filled with challenges to build stronger communities, ensure
justice, and create lasting change. Yet together, I know we will continue to
champion civil rights, advocate for equity, and lift the essential workers and
families who are the backbone of this nation.
Today, I give thanks to you—for your commitment, your energy, and your belief in
the work we do. Together, we are shaping the future, honoring our rich history,
and writing the next chapter of LULAC’s story with boldness and vision.
From my family to yours, I wish you a joyful and blessed Thanksgiving. Let us
step forward into the future with excitement, determination, and hope for what
lies ahead.
Con gratitud y fe en el futuro,
Roman Palomares
National President and Chairman of the Board
