Exe Order on Building and Rebuilding Monuments to American Heroes

I didnt know the president did this, I knew he gave 100k to rebuild the statues but I did not hear anything about it on the news so I wanted all to be aware that Trump cares and does everything in his power to rebuild what the dems have taken away.

Executive Order on Building and Rebuilding Monuments to American Heroes

 DONALD J. TRUMP

THE WHITE HOUSE,
July 3, 2020.

By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, it is hereby ordered as follows:

Section 1.  Purpose.  America owes its present greatness to its past sacrifices.  Because the past is always at risk of being forgotten, monuments will always be needed to honor those who came before.  Since the time of our founding, Americans have raised monuments to our greatest citizens.  In 1784, the legislature of Virginia commissioned the earliest statue of George Washington, a “monument of affection and gratitude” to a man who “united to the endowments of the Hero the virtues of the Patriot” and gave to the world “an Immortal Example of true Glory.”  I Res. H. Del. (June 24, 1784).  In our public parks and plazas, we have erected statues of great Americans who, through acts of wisdom and daring, built and preserved for us a republic of ordered liberty.
