WASSERMAN SCHULTZ STATEMENT IN OBSERVANCE OF MEMORIAL DAY

(Sunrise, Fla.) – U.S. Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (FL-23) released the following statement in observance of Memorial Day:

“Each Memorial Day, we gather to pay tribute to those Americans who have made the ultimate sacrifice to protect and preserve this great democracy. These brave men and women fought valiantly so the rest of us can enjoy the freedoms, liberty and security that we all have in America.

It’s easy to get caught up in the demands of daily life and overlook their constant vigilance and sacrifice – all across the world – past and present. These courageous soldiers, airmen, sailors, Marines and Coast Guardsmen and women put their lives on the line for all of us every day.

We are deeply saddened when they do not come home to the families, friends, and communities they so bravely fought to protect. This Memorial Day we must share their stories, honor their families and memories, and never, ever forget their ultimate sacrifice.”
