A personal note from me on this 4th of July…

John,  I wanted to take a personal moment to wish you a happy 4th of July. I know it can feel a little hard to celebrate this year – our country feels more divided than it has in a long time. The fractures aren’t just partisan; they cut deeper, into questions about who we are and what kind of countr…
