Happy 4th of July!
A statue of a Union soldier with fireworks in the backroundPeople watching a fireworks show to celebrate the 4th of JulyOn this 4th I'm celebrating the continuous pursuit of America ideals. A nation of laws. A nation where all men are equal, regardless of race, religion or creed. A nation where those free men are guaranteed life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. No kings.

From our founders, to our heros in arms, to all the civil rights leaders here at home, we are a nation unbent. Defiance is in our blood. We chased out a monarchy, broke the cruel practice of slavery, defended the free world in its darkest hours, and we marched. We marched to give women equal rights in their country. We marched to give black men and black women equal rights in their country. We marched to give gays the right to get married and love openly and peacefully in their country. And one by one, struggle by struggle, these true patriots - most of who history will never remember - pushed this nation closer to its founding values.

We are a beautiful project. A project built on rejecting the the dark impulses that wish to subdo men and rob them of life and liberty. Our history is beautiful, messy, contradictory. Our project is never complete. The work to push our country closer to its true values continues. I'm proud of that work. I'm proud each and every day to be an American.

Teddy says it a lot better than I can
One of my favorite quotes from one of our greatest presidents, Teddy Roosevelt:

"Here is your country. Cherish these natural wonders. Cherish the history and romance as a sacred heritage, for your children and their children's children. Do not let selfish men or greedy interests skin your country of its beauty, its riches or its romance."

It's not just that renewables are better for our planet, they're better for our pocketbooks too. We have everything we need to switch off of fossil fuels. Now it's just up to us to fight for it

This continues to be an uncomfortable truth for liberals, our policies (as well intended as they are) are creating more barriers for projects than helping. We got to be able to build in blue America. It can't take decades for a project to get completed. That's a path to permanent minority status
