Let's make this birthday one to remember.

78 years old (Born on February 15, 1947)

Happy Birthday, Baldemar! Another year older and still organizing circles around the rest of us. Ever since you co-founded FLOC back in 1967, you've been tirelessly advocating for migrant farm workers—proving that age is just a number when it comes to fighting injustice.

Your recent successes continue to inspire: from negotiating better working conditions across Midwest farms to empowering countless families with dignity and respect. Honestly, if activism had an MVP award (Most Valuable Protester), you'd win every season!

Here's wishing you another fruitful year ahead—and may your birthday cake be union-made and as sweet as victory itself!
