It's Raul. This Father’s Day, I want to take a moment to send warm wishes to you and your family.

My daughters, Sage and Sky, are my world. Every decision I make — in my home and in Congress — is shaped by my commitment to building a better future for them and for all of our kids.

That perspective shapes how I approach my work. When I think about kitchen-table issues, I think about what every parent wants: the chance to give their children a stable, healthy life.

I know families are working hard every day to do right by their kids, often facing real challenges. As a father, I feel that deeply — and it fuels my commitment to fight for policies that support and strengthen families in every community.

This Father’s Day, I’m holding close the values I’ve learned from parenthood: love, responsibility, and the drive to make things better for the next generation.

From my family to yours, I hope you have a joyful and meaningful Father’s Day.

— Raul
