Independence Day

Statement by Administrator Samantha Power

On Independence Day, we celebrate the enduring dream of a nation where citizens rule themselves, where a person’s potential is not limited by their background, where individuals have the freedom to pursue the lives they dream of for themselves and their loved ones.

Independence Day is a time to reflect on the values that make our nation great and to honor the sacrifices of those who have fought for our freedom. It is a day to come together as a country, to celebrate our unity and diversity, and to reaffirm our commitment to upholding the principles of liberty and justice for all.
