John,
I want to wish you and your family a peaceful and reflective Memorial Day.
Today, I am thinking about those who have given everything in service to our country. Millions of servicemen and servicewomen have paid the ultimate price in order to preserve our values and freedoms for future generations. We owe them and their families a debt of gratitude.
I hope you’ll join me today in a moment of reflection to honor the sacrifices made by all who have served, and are currently serving. Thank you.
On days like today, I also recognize the need to reaffirm our support for these heroes by ensuring they have the resources they and their families have the resources they need to adjust back to civilian life.
We cannot waver in our commitment to those who have answered the call, and must ensure that we are all working to build a future that lives up to the values and freedoms they work so earnestly to protect.
With gratitude,
Emilia
