@ginafortexas: Two hundred and fifty years ago, America began an extraordinary experiment. The story of this country has been the enduring work of building a more perfect union, expanding opportunity, and ensuring that each generation can come closer to the promise of America than the one before it. We have not always lived up to that promise, which is why the work continues. Today we celebrate and honor those who have moved us forward, and recommit ourselves to the work that remains.
