The 4th of July is always an important time to reflect on the founding of our country and the work we’ve done to create a more perfect Union. But taking a moment to reflect is especially important this year, friend.

We’re at a perilous moment in our country’s history. And it is up to us to continue fighting for the American ideals that make our democracy and our Constitution the greatest in the world.

So this 4th of July, we hope you have a restful celebration with friends and family. We’ve got a critical couple of months ahead, and we need to be ready to fight for this country that we love.

Happy 4th of July, friend, and thank you for standing with us in our fight for democracy.
