 The 4th of July signifies the day the Declaration of Independence was adopted, July 4th, 1776, and the United States emerged as a sovereign nation. On Independence Day, let's joyfully commemorate our liberty, a privilege we must always cherish. Ensure your safety and have a fantastic weekend. Happy birthday, America.
