July 2 US VIRGIN ISLANDS — My fellow Virgin Islanders, as we prepare to celebrate the Fourth of July, I extend warm wishes to each of you for a safe, joyful, and reflective Independence Day. This national holiday is a time for family gatherings, fireworks, and the vibrant traditions we hold dear—but at its heart, it is a commemoration of a powerful declaration: that all people are created equal and endowed with unalienable rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. As Americans and as Virgin Islanders, we are part of that enduring journey toward a more perfect union. Our unique history—rooted in struggle, perseverance, and resilience—adds a powerful layer of meaning to this day. The freedoms we celebrate were not given; they were hard-won, and they continue to be protected by those who serve and stand for justice, equality, and democracy. This Fourth of July, I encourage us all to celebrate not just the independence of a nation, but the shared values that unite us across all communities—freedom, opportunity, and a belief in the future we are building together. Let us also remember the many Virgin Islanders who serve in uniform and in civic life—those who work every day to uphold the freedoms and responsibilities of citizenship. And as we enjoy the festivities, let’s recommit ourselves to the ideals of unity and service that have guided us through challenges and triumphs alike. On behalf of the Government of the Virgin Islands, I wish you all a blessed, safe, and meaningful Independence Day. May we celebrate with gratitude and continue working together for a stronger Virgin Islands and a stronger America. # # # TAGS No tags CATEGORIES Uncategorized Previous Next Comments are closed © 2026 Government of the United States Virgin Islands.
