Hello,

Today, on Memorial Day, we remember the brave servicemembers who laid down their lives to defend our freedom and democracy.

While we can never fully repay their debt, we can pay solemn tribute to those patriots by never forgetting their selflessness in serving our country.

Just as they answered the call to serve, so have so many of our frontline heroes who have risked their lives to save ours during this pandemic.

So please join me on this day by taking a moment to reflect on our fallen heroes and their families. Whether you're remembering a relative, a friend, or a neighbor, I wish you a safe Memorial Day.

Thank you,

Lavora Barnes
Chair, Michigan Democratic Party
