Let's make this birthday one to remember.

93 years old (Born on April 09, 1932)

Happy birthday to Mario Guerra Obledo, the legendary "Godfather of the Latino Movement"! You've spent decades making sure politicians couldn't ignore Latino voices—probably causing a few sleepless nights in Washington along the way. Your tireless advocacy and groundbreaking efforts have paved paths for countless individuals, proving that one determined voice can indeed change history.

From championing civil rights legislation to bringing crucial issues into national conversations, your legacy continues inspiring generations. Today we celebrate not just another year older—but wiser (and perhaps even more stubbornly committed) than ever before! Here's hoping this year's candles don't set off any smoke alarms!
