Friend,



Has May been a long month for you, too? We've seen House Republicans remove Liz Cheney from her leadership post simply for telling the truth; leaders like Kevin McCarthy choose party over country by blocking an independent, bipartisan 1/6 Commission; and Marjorie Taylor Greene and Matt Gaetz continue to wreak havoc everywhere they go. It can get exhausting.



But on the hopeful side of things, I'm deeply encouraged by the amazing momentum and growth of the Country First movement.? Reasonable people of goodwill from every state and background have found a home here.? And what's unique about us is our recognition that we can disagree on policy yet agree that conversation, collaboration, and common ground are the path to real, durable solutions to our nation's problems.? And that gives me, and I know many of you, great hope for America's future.



Of course, it would be unwise to dream up a brighter future without reflecting on the past, which is exactly what Memorial Day prompts us to do each year.? This is the weekend that our nation collectively remembers, thanks, and mourns those who paid the ultimate cost for us to live in freedom.? These brave men and women are the epitome of COUNTRY FIRST -- they gave their last breath in defense of our nation and constitution.? Their sacrifice was not for a political party or president, but for all of us. And it is up to the living to make our country worthy of that gift every day.







With enduring gratitude for the glorious men and women we honor this weekend, I hope we all will seize the opportunity to take a break from the bad news, unplug from toxicity, enjoy the ones we love, and thank God for America and her heroes.?



Country First,



Adam
