WASHINGTON – Sen. John Hoeven, R-N.D., joined Senators Patty Murray, D-Wash., John Boozman, R-Ark., and Jacky Rosen, D-Nev., in reintroducing leading bipartisan legislation to designate April as the “Month of the Military Child,” according to information from Hoeven’s office.

The Month of the Military Child is observed each April to celebrate and honor the commitment, service, and sacrifices made by children in military families and urges all Americans to show appreciation for the more than 1.6 million children who are part of military families across the United States.

“Military children show incredible resilience as they navigate the unique challenges of military life,” Hoeven said. “From frequent moves to long deployments, they stand strong beside their families with courage. Their sacrifices often go unseen, but their service to our nation deserves to be celebrated.”
