For many families around the country, July 4th is a day to gather together in backyards, on front porches, or in public parks, to celebrate with fireworks, potato salad, hot dogs, and burgers. But let us also reflect on this moment to grapple with our nation's history, how far we've come, and the challenge of carrying the banner of freedom, justice, and equality forward as we forge ahead into an unknown future.

Our nation's evolution has not come without setbacks and new challenges from combatting old problems.

A nation that declared as a founding principle that "all men are created equal" yet enshrined slavery in its Constitution for over eighty years, just confirmed the first Black woman to the Supreme Court this past week. While that same Supreme Court, however, overturned Roe and stripped women of federal protections for abortion rights, putting the health of millions of women in peril.

Voting rights, once the province of land-owning white men, is now the right of every American with few exceptions. Here, too, we face renewed efforts to chip away at this fundamental right by extreme Republican-led state legislatures across our nation, like here in Florida.

For me, America was a refuge for my grandfather who survived Nazi concentration camps that claimed the lives of his parents and provided him the opportunity to live a full life surrounded by his loved ones. Fleeing persecution is a story familiar for many Americans, be it the gas chambers of a Nazi death camp or the lash of a slaveholder.

However, increasingly our fellow citizens believe the American Dream is becoming a relic of a bygone era; slipping away under the strain of unaffordable housing, corporations raking in record profits while people who put in a hard day’s work struggle to put food on the table after they clock out, and climate change posing an existential threat to our nation and the world we call home.

We must take control. Overcoming the obstacles Republican extremists have erected to create barriers to the ballot box is just the start. We need leaders who understand what’s at stake and will fight for a future that leaves nobody behind. This is my commitment to you. As Florida’s next attorney general I will do everything in my power to ensure that justice is served, consumers are protected, and our elected officials who abuse their power are held accountable.

I hope you will join me in celebrating this important holiday and have a safe and happy Fourth of July. Then, let's get back to work so we can overcome the challenges facing our nation, like we have so many times before.
