父亲节公告

On Father’s Day, we celebrate and honor the men who have embraced the essential role of fatherhood. Through acts of selflessness, determination, and love, fathers and father figures enrich and bless all of our lives. Today, we thank them for boldly embracing the tremendous responsibility of raising our Nation’s children to be happy, productive, and responsible adults, and for their ceaseless devotion to their families.
在父亲节，我们把祝贺和荣耀给予那些已经承当起父亲责任的男人。通过无私，坚毅和慈爱的行为，父亲们和慈父们丰富着我们所有人的生活，并带来祝福。今天，我们感谢他们勇敢的承担起培养我们国家的孩子，使之成为快乐的、有用的和负责任的成人，同时也感谢他们对家人不懈的巨大奉献。
As children, we take comfort in the presence and companionship of fathers, and we are strengthened by their encouragement as we prepare to confront future challenges. Throughout life, we draw courage from our father’s firm and loving guidance and example. With the values they instill in us, they encourage us to live a life of virtue and exercise good judgment as we enter into adulthood and have families of our own.
作为孩子，我们在父亲的陪伴和友谊中感到安慰，当我们准备应对未来的挑战时，我们从他们的鼓励中得到力量。在整个生命过程中，我们从父亲的坚定、爱心的指导和榜样中汲取勇气。他们注入给我们的价值观伴随着（我们），他们鼓励我们遵循道德而生活，并在我们成年后以及拥有自己的家庭时，能运用自己的判断力。
Children of all ages benefit in countless ways from a father’s ongoing presence and involvement. A father’s time, attention, and mentorship are crucial to the physical, emotional, and spiritual growth of his child. Our Nation heralds the dignity of fatherhood, a father’s role in developing children’s character, and the indispensable influence fathers have on their children and our communities.
所有年龄段的儿童都可以从父亲持续的存在和参与中获益。父亲的时间，关照和指导对孩子的身体，情感和精神成长至关重要。我们的国家尊崇父亲的尊严，父亲在培养儿童品格上的作用，以及父亲对子女和社区不可或缺的影响。
Increasingly, research has shown that children with involved fathers are more likely to have healthy self-esteem, do well in school, and make higher salaries as adults. This is one reason why my Administration is committed to promoting the role of fathers and father figures in ensuring the growth, development, and well-being of America’s youth. We support the continuance of grant funding to organizations across our country that promote responsible fatherhood by helping fathers to strengthen their relationships with their children and to seek and retain gainful employment to provide a stable home life for their families.
越来越多的研究表明，有父亲的孩子更有可能拥有健康的自尊，在学校表现良好，并且成年后的工资也会更高。这就是为什么我的政府致力于促进父亲和父亲榜样的原因之一，因为这可以在确保美国青年的成长、发展和福祉方面发挥作用。我们支持继续向全国各个组织提供资金，通过这些组织帮助父亲加强与子女的关系，使父亲们能寻求和保留有酬职业，为家庭提供稳定的家庭生活，以此促进承担负责任的父亲身份。
On this day, we thank all amazing fathers for their unending dedication and leadership. They impact countless lives in such important and powerful ways. We express our heartfelt love and appreciation to fathers, whether their children are by birth, adoption, or foster care, for the many sacrifices they have made to ensure that their children have every opportunity to reach their full potential in life.
在这一天，我们感谢所有杰出的父亲们无尽的奉献精神和领导能力。他们以如此重要和强大的方式影响无数生命。我们向父亲们表达我们衷心的爱戴和感激，无论他们的孩子是亲生的，收养的还是寄养的，他们为确保孩子有机会充分发挥其生命潜能而做出了许多牺牲。

TRUMP, President of the United States of America, in accordance with a joint resolution of the Congress approved April 24, 1972, as amended (36 U.S.C. 109), do hereby proclaim June 16, 2019, as Father’s Day.
