We, the people of the United States, united in our shared pursuit of justice, equality, and opportunity, declare that our nation faces a crossroads.

To fulfill the vision of a fair and equitable future, we must confront the systemic issues that divide us and reaffirm our collective commitment to unity, progress, and human dignity.
