  • Peterson Op-Ed: Observing Memorial Day

    Congressman Collin Peterson|May 25, 2016

Government leaders first established “Declaration Day” following the Civil War as an opportunity for the nation to honor the graves of fallen Union and Confederate soldiers. The holiday has since extended to pay respect to all Americans who died serving in the...
