Memorial Day 2026
Dear Friends:
As we soon celebrate 250 years of nationhood, we pause to remember those that gave the ultimate sacrifice allowing our nation to endure this long. The Memorial Day holiday provides us with the opportunity to celebrate those souls lost fighting to preserve our freedom and democratic life. Yes, we face challenges to ensure our democracy remains a shining light among nations, but we remedy those challenges by participating in our democracy, being active in civic affairs, and of course, voting. The upcoming 2026 mid-term elections will be an important test as to whether we continue our slide from a flourishing democracy that recognize the separation of powers we learned as children.
I am honored to be the President of the South Atlantic and Gulf Coast District and thank my brothers and sisters of the ILA, tor all you do as we join together this Memorial Day honoring those who served, but praying for a more hopeful, peaceful and safe time ahead.
May God Bless America and the ILA and all of those in need.
Fraternally,
Alan A. Robb
President
