Honoring a legacy

Honoring a legacy
 
Since our country was founded, we have always been a people who deeply cherished freedom. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. loved freedom so much that he constantly risked his life in its pursuit for others, no matter their station in life. Dr. King pushed our nation into the unflickering light of conscience so that all could enjoy equality before the law; and he gave his life so that all Americans would be born into a nation that fully lives the seminal words of its founding, “we hold these truths to be self-evident; that all men are created equal.”
 
Today, his legacy lives on in others — all those who advance the cause of individual liberty, freedom and equality.
 
On behalf of all of Michigan’s Republicans, and with the knowledge that we will forever stand for the freedom Dr. King so passionately sought, I ask that you join us in recognizing and celebrating the life of a truly great American.
 
God bless,
