Dolores Huerta (April 10, 1930 – October 28, 2026) was a prominent American labor leader and civil rights activist. Together with Cesar Chavez she co-founded the National Farm Workers Association, which later became the United Farm Workers (UFW), played a key organizing role in the 1965 Delano grape strike, and is known for originating the famous slogan "Sí, se puede" ("Yes, we can"). Huerta spent decades championing farmworkers' rights, the political participation of Latina women and civil rights, and in 2012 she received the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the highest civilian honor in the United States.
