Hi John, 

I hope you will have a chance to rest and relax with your friends and family this Memorial Day weekend. But I hope you will also join me in taking time to remember the brave men and women who have served our country with unwavering valor, and those who have given their lives to protect our freedoms.  

For hundreds of years, generations of brave men and women have served and sacrificed to protect us. Many never made it home and Memorial Day is our chance to ensure these heroes are never forgotten.  

This Memorial Day, there are many ways you can show your thanks to our fallen heroes – here are just a few. But in addition to actions you can take this weekend, let’s challenge ourselves to carry forward the ideals of bravery, unity, and resilience exemplified by men and women in uniform. How can we, as citizens, honor their sacrifices by fostering a political culture grounded in cooperation and mutual respect?  

As you enjoy your Memorial Day, let us remember and honor the fallen. Let’s come together to forge a future that reflects the sacrifices made by our servicemen and women, ensuring their legacy endures in our commitment to a unified nation. 

Margaret White,
