<p>The largest county in Virginia, the state once home to America&#8217;s greatest Founding Fathers, will not &#8220;celebrate&#8221; the 250th anniversary of America&#8217;s 1776 founding after a &#8220;work group&#8221; including officials associated with the United States Army and George Washington museums read a survey that showed that liberals don&#8217;t think America&#8217;s birth is a cause for celebration.</p>
<p>The Fairfax County Semiquincentennial Work Group said events in 2026 should instead be a &#8220;Commemoration&#8221; of the date and &#8220;a continuum of recent Virginia commemorations—of 1607 and of 1619—that emphasize the challenges, diversity, and dynamism of the Commonwealth&#8221; and &#8220;an expression of our nation’s movement towards greater justice and equity.&#8221;</p>
