LEGISLATIVE UPDATE FROM
REP. CAL BAHR - DISTRICT 31B
Friday, July 1st, 2022
On July 2nd, 1776, the Continental Congress voted in favor of independence, and two days later delegates from the 13 colonies adopted the Declaration of Independence, a historic document. On that day, John Adams wrote to his wife Abigail that July 2 “will be celebrated, by succeeding Generations, as the great anniversary Festival” and that the celebration should include “Pomp and Parade…Games, Sports, Guns, Bells, Bonfires and Illuminations from one End of this Continent to the other.”
May this July 4th be as festive as it was 246 years ago at the nation's first celebration of our independence.
Happy Birthday America.
Choose Freedom,
Cal Bahr
State Representative, 31B
