Tell your Senator to stand with Greece
Senator Bob Menendez (D-N.J.), Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, joined by Senator John Barrasso (R-Wyo.) in introducing a bipartisan Senate resolution commemorating the 200 the anniversary of Greek Independence Day, March 25, 2021.
The bipartisan resolution celebrates the commitment to democracy that Greece and the United States share as well as the two nations’ lasting partnership and rich history of friendship.
The Greek Revolution of 1821 also galvanized Americans, and a number of American Philhellenes even traveled to Greece to fight alongside and provide aid to the Greek people in their struggle for independence. Since then, the United States and Greece have stood shoulder to shoulder as friends, partners and allies.
Among other things, this Senate resolution:
- Recognizes the 200th anniversary of Greek Independence Day
- Celebrates Ancient Greece as the birthplace of democracy and the enduring commitment of the Greek people to democratic principles
- Acknowledges the important role that Greece has played on the global stage in addition to the country’s strong relationship with the United States
