April is celebrated as the Month of the Military Child. Throughout the month, we express appreciation for the important role that children play in the lives of their mother or father who wears the uniform of our nation. More than 1.7 million American children under the age of 18 have at least one parent serving in the military.
This is often a tough life for kids. Military children endure and experience so much in their lives from frequent relocations and learning new cultures to one or both parents' deployments. This month is a perfect time to recognize their sacrifices and applaud their courage. I encourage families across the 19th Congressional District to participate in events and activities in their communities that recognize and express gratitude to these children. I would also like to sincerely thank all of the brave children that tirelessly offer support to their military family members. While we reserve just one month for this purpose, these children deserve our recognition each and every day.
