Senator Boxer on the César E. Chávez National Monument

Tuesday, October 2, 2012

Dear Friend:

I am so pleased that President Obama will be coming to Keene, California next week to announce the establishment of the César E. Chávez National Monument. I commend the President for honoring the legacy of this American hero, who dedicated his life to promoting equal rights and justice for all Americans.

This new national monument will serve as a lasting tribute not only to César Chávez but to the people he fought for, the millions of hard-working men and women who have contributed so much to our country. To read more about the monument please click here and here.

Sincerely,

U.S. Senator Barbara Boxer

I was gratified to read that there is going to be a monument to our role model and leader Caesar Chavez and that President Barack Obama is involved in its dedication. Your efforts on behalf the working men and women of California and their children are appreciated.

Thanks for letting us know about this. It is especially timely in this era of union busting, excessive CEO compensation, and a rapidly growing divide between those on top and the rest of us. I hope that as a result of this designation, many more people will come to know how the efforts of this American hero improved the lives of countless workers.
Peter, Vallejo
