Body

WHEREAS, September 17th, 2025, marks the two hundred thirty-eighth anniversary of the drafting of the Constitution of the United States of America by the Constitutional Convention; and

WHEREAS, it is fitting and proper to accord official recognition to this historic document and its anniversary, and to the patriotic celebrations that commemorate the occasion; and

WHEREAS, Public Law 915 provides for an annual proclamation by the President of the United States of America designating September 17th through the 23rd as Constitution Week.

NOW, THEREFORE, on behalf of the Council for the Incorporated County of Los Alamos, I do hereby proclaim September 17th through the 23rd, 2025, as

“CONSTITUTION WEEK IN LOS ALAMOS COUNTY”

and call upon our citizens to reaffirm the ideals set forth by the Framers of the Constitution by protecting the freedoms it guarantees, remembering that lost rights may never be restored.

I further urge all citizens to study the Constitution and reflect on the privilege of being an American, with the rights and responsibilities that privilege entails.
