As we mark the 250th anniversary of our nation, a reminder: if you're planning to use fireworks, be aware of the impact they may have on those with PTSD, including our nation's Veterans and victims of gun violence. Be courteous and respectful as you celebrate.

Today marks four years since the horrific shooting at the Fourth of July parade in Highland Park. My heart still aches for Highland Park and the families who experienced this tragedy. We owe it to our communities to pass meaningful legislation to address the scourge of gun violence in our nation.

Four years ago, the same gunfire I heard on the battlefield in Iraq rang out through Highland Park during a Fourth of July parade. Seven lives cut short. A two-year-old orphaned. A community forever changed. Enough has to be enough. Reinstate the assault weapons ban. Now.

Happy Fourth of July! On this day in 1776, our founders adopted the Declaration of Independence and established that all men are created equal, a phrase that links together all those committed to liberty. As we celebrate America’s 250th birthday, may we strive to make that vision a reality.

Happy 250th, America. Above all else, today I’m remembering the bedrock principles of our young nation. What our founders fought for, what patriots have marched for and what our servicemembers have bled for time and time again:

The founding fathers called America God’s noble experiment. I believe in all three words to this day: we are one nation under God, we have clung to noble ideas for longer than any other nation, and we are an experiment always changing, trying to make ourselves better.

Today, on the 250th anniversary of America’s independence, I'm thinking of the words of Maryland's own Thurgood Marshall, “This is your democracy. Make it. Protect it. Pass it on." For 250 years, Americans have answered that call & at this pivotal moment, I know we will again.

I’m disturbed to learn that there was yet another potential act of violence in a house of worship—at the Muslim Center in Queens. I’m relieved he was subdued by a congregant before any harm occurred. Islamophobia is unacceptable, and we must continue to reject hatred and bigotry in every form.

My next stop on the Nevada Craft Beverage Passport Tour was Boulder Dam Brewing Company, an incredible small business right here in Boulder City. Enjoyed some beer and bratwurst with good company – and watched Team USA beat Bosnia and Herzegovina!

Since Republicans passed their Big Bad Bill, more than 800,000 children across the country have lost SNAP benefits. In New Mexico, that means over 10,000 children are going hungry so that Trump could give billionaires a tax cut.

RFK Jr. is actively censoring scientific research to try and rewrite reality. The COVID vaccine reduced the risk of hospitalizations. That's a FACT. It's supported by SCIENCE. THIS is why it is so dangerous for a conspiracy theorist to be leading our nation's health.
