UNRESOLVED IN NORTHERN IRELAND,
INCLUDING SECURING JUSTICE FOR
VICTIMS OF VIOLENCE AND
PROVIDING FOR THE RIGHTS OF ALL
SECTIONS OF THE COMMUNITY, WE
CELEBRATE THE PROGRESS THAT HAS
BEEN MADE OVER THE PAST 25
YEARS. WE ALSO CELEBRATE THE
IRISH HERITAGE THAT MANY OF US
SHARE HERE IN CALIFORNIA SO MANY
IN MY OWN ANCESTORS CAME TO THIS
GREAT STATE. UM, SIX GENERATIONS
AGO. SEEKING FREEDOM AND
OPPORTUNITY, LIKE SO MANY
IMMIGRANTS WHO HAVE COME TO

FIGHTING FOR FREEDOMS OF
STANDING UP FOR WHAT IS RIGHT.
CONTINUES HERE IN THE UNITED
