Yonkers Insider: Statement from Yonkers City Council Minority Leader Mike Breen 5th District: Happy Independence Day.

 

Happy Birthday to the United States of America! Today marks the anniversary of one of the most monumental moments in history when the Founding Fathers signed the Declaration of Independence after successfully fighting off the tyrannical British monarchy to gain independence and go on to create the greatest country the world has ever seen.

Please take time to celebrate all that this country has given us whether it be the freedom to speak freely, to protest causes you believe to be unjust, to practice your own religion, or any of the freedoms afforded to us by the US Constitution. With these freedoms in mind, I am proud to say that I am an American.

God Bless America!
