John,

I want to take a moment today to honor the brave Granite Staters who sacrificed everything to protect our freedoms.

It can be easy to lose sight of what Memorial Day is all about — in between barbecues and beach trips — but today is a time to remember the selflessness, courage, and dedication of our fallen military heroes.

You have my word: As Governor, I will always be a fierce advocate for our veterans and active-duty military personnel — ensuring they receive all the care, support, and opportunities they deserve.

Wishing you and your loved ones a safe, peaceful, and reflective Memorial Day!
