                Proclamation 9624 of June 16, 2017

                
Father's Day, 2017

                By the President of the United States of America

                A Proclamation

                Father's Day is a special occasion that reminds us to 
                pause and thank the men in our lives who have taken on 
                the responsibility of raising children. As sons and 
                daughters, we recognize the love they have given and 
                the sacrifices they have made, and we celebrate the 
                indispensable role fathers play in our lives and 
                communities.

                Fathers have the ability and responsibility to instill 
                in us core values we carry into adulthood. The examples 
                they set and the lessons they impart about hard work, 
                dedication to family, faith in God, and believing in 
                ourselves establish the moral foundation for success 
                that allows us to live up to our full potential. We 
                remember those fatherly moments big and small--throwing 
                a baseball, writing an essay, driving a car, walking 
                down the aisle--that have shaped us, and we thank our 
                dads for being there with a helping hand and an open 
                heart.

                Day in and day out, fathers put their children first, 
                creating loving and supportive environments. Whether by 
                birth, adoption, or foster care, today we honor the 
                incredible fathers in our lives for all they have done 
                and continue to do for us. Fathers inspire us to better 
                ourselves and to be men and women of outstanding 
                character. We recommit ourselves as individuals, 
                families, and communities to promoting and supporting 
                fatherhood, and take this day to express our love and 
                appreciation for fathers across our country.

                NOW, THEREFORE, I, DONALD J. 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 18, 
                2017, as Father's Day. I call on United States 
                Government officials to display the flag of the United 
                States on all Government buildings on Father's Day and 
                invite State and local governments and the people of 
                the United States to observe Father's Day with 
                appropriate ceremonies.

                IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this 
                sixteenth day of June, in the year of our Lord two 
                thousand seventeen, and of the Independence of the 
                United States of America the two hundred and forty-
                first.
