Happy MLK Day

Martin Luther King Jr. Day is a memorial, not just to a heroic man but to all of the civil rights we enjoy as Americans.  As you celebrate your day, take some time to reflect on the way that America is exceptional.  We have holidays that celebrate our freedom and the brave men and women who fought and died to keep us free, but this day is the only national holiday that highlights our shared heritage of civil rights.  It is also a call to action, as the defense of our rights requires constant vigilance.  From all of us, we wish you a happy MLK Day.

Human progress is neither automatic nor inevitable… Every step toward the goal of justice requires sacrifice, suffering, and struggle; the tireless exertions and passionate concern of dedicated individuals.
