WASHINGTON – On Monday, U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) released the following statement in commemoration of Memorial Day. 

“Heroes throughout American society rose to the occasion over the past year, with many losing their lives caring for patients and protecting our communities. On Memorial Day we specifically pay tribute to all those who served and sacrificed to defend our precious freedoms. Throughout our history, over one million American men and women have paid the ultimate price. We should all take the time to remember, reflect, and be eternally grateful for their dedication and courage.”
