America will observe Mother's Day on May 11, 2025, as proclaimed by President Donald J. Trump. The proclamation honors mothers for their pivotal role in shaping the nation's future through their unconditional love and devotion.
The President emphasized the impact of mothers from infancy to adulthood, stating they are "the heart of our families" and "the light in our homes." He highlighted their role in nurturing children with patience and wisdom, describing them as a "lasting source of comfort, reassurance, and inspiration."
President Trump reaffirmed his administration's commitment to supporting American mothers and families. This includes defending the dignity of life, supporting at-risk pregnancies, making fertility treatments more affordable, and advocating for the child tax credit to improve living standards for families.
The proclamation also underscores the importance of protecting parental rights against ideological influences that could undermine them. The President stated his dedication to advancing the American Dream for every family and child.
In addition to recognizing mothers' contributions, the proclamation calls on Americans to honor all maternal figures who guide future generations. It encourages expressions of love and respect towards birth mothers, adoptive mothers, foster mothers, stepmothers, grandmothers, and others who fulfill maternal roles.
Mother's Day was established by Congress through a joint resolution approved on May 8, 1914. It designated the second Sunday in May each year for its observance.
President Trump's official declaration concludes with an invitation for reflection on motherhood's significance to family prosperity across communities nationwide.
