This week, it was a great honor to be able to lay a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in the Arlington National Cemetery.

This opportunity was nothing short of humbling as this sacred memorial site is dedicated to U.S. service members whose remains have not been found or identified.

I want to thank all the service members who gave their lives protecting our freedom.

Your family's sacrifice to our great nation will never be forgotten, and all Gold Star Families will be in the Seventh District's prayers this holiday season.

If you would like to honor these heroes, Wreaths Across America will be at Central Wisconsin Veterans Cemetery tomorrow to honor our country’s fallen service members. You can find more details about the event and how to volunteer here.

I hope you all have Merry Christmas and a happy New Year. I wish you and your family health and happiness throughout the holidays. We will be back in 2024 with another edition of The Telegram.
