Today, we celebrate not only the Fourth of July, but a truly historic milestone—250 years of American independence.
For two and a half centuries, our nation has been defined by the courage, sacrifice, and determination of those who came before us. From the signing of the Declaration of Independence to the generations of servicemen and women who have defended our freedoms.
As we celebrate America`s 250th birthday, let us take time to reflect on our rich history, honor those who have served and sacrificed, and renew our commitment to the principles of liberty, opportunity, and self-government that continue to guide our nation.
Whether you`re attending a community celebration, enjoying a parade, gathering with family and friends, or watching fireworks, I hope you have a safe and memorable Independence Day.
As we celebrate our nation`s independence this Fourth of July weekend, I wish everyone a safe, fun, and happy holiday.
Whether you`re spending time with family and friends, attending a local celebration, or enjoying a fireworks display, please celebrate responsibly and take a moment to reflect on the freedoms we are fortunate to enjoy.
In observance of Independence Day, my offices will be closed on Friday, July 3rd.

As summer temperatures rise, I encourage everyone to take a few simple steps to stay safe and beat the heat.
💧 Drink plenty of water and cool off in air-conditioned spaces whenever possible. Be sure to check on older family members, neighbors, and anyone who may need extra assistance.
🐾 Don`t forget about your pets! Make sure they always have access to fresh, cool water and plenty of shade. Hot pavement can quickly burn their paws, so if it`s too hot for your hand, it`s too hot for their feet.
🚗 Never leave children or pets in a vehicle—even for a moment. Always check the back seat before locking your car and walking away.
You can also help keep your home cooler and reduce energy use by closing blinds or curtains during the day, using fans when appropriate, and waiting until the evening to run appliances like dishwashers, dryers, and ovens.
Stay safe, stay cool, and have a wonderful summer!
