Let's make this birthday one to remember.

83 years old (Born on June 27, 1941)

Happy Birthday, Mike Honda! You've been serving California since 2001—long enough to see flip phones become smartphones and political debates move from town halls to Twitter. Your dedication has outlasted countless trends, proving that good leadership never goes out of style.

From championing education reform to advocating tirelessly for civil rights, your legacy is as impressive as it is timeless. While others might measure success in votes or speeches given, we prefer counting the smiles you've inspired along the way.

Here's wishing you another year filled with laughter and continued success—because let's face it: Congress needs more Hondas!
