The DFL Veterans and Family Members Caucus honors Constitution Day on September 17 as a vital recognition of the foundational principles that uphold our democracy and the freedoms we cherish as a nation. This day commemorates the signing of the U.S. Constitution in 1787, a document that embodies the values of liberty, justice, and the rule of law.
For Veterans and their family members, as well as all patriotic Americans, the Constitution is not just a historical artifact; it is the very framework that safeguards the rights and freedoms we fought to protect. By honoring Constitution Day, the DFL Veterans and Family Members Caucus emphasizes the importance of civic education and engagement, encouraging all citizens to understand their rights and responsibilities under this revered document.
Moreover, the observance of Constitution Day serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by veterans (and their supporting family members), in defense of these principles, fostering a greater appreciation for the democratic ideals that unite us as a nation. Through this support, the DFL Veterans and Family Members Caucus aims to inspire future generations to uphold and defend the Constitution, ensuring that its legacy endures for years to come.
Join us on 17 September celebrating Constitution Day!
