NALC celebrates Juneteenth

June 19, 2026

NALC President Brian L. Renfroe issued the following statement:

Today, NALC celebrates Juneteenth, a national holiday that recognizes the final emancipation of enslaved Black Americans and celebrates freedom.

While Juneteenth is a day of liberation and celebration, I urge all NALC members to join me today in reflecting on our past and recommitting to a better future.

We cannot shy away from our nation's painful history of slavery, racism and discrimination. As we confront our past, NALC recommits to doing everything in our power to make our union, and the entire country, an equitable and safe place for our Black brothers, sisters and siblings to succeed.

On behalf of NALC, I wish everyone a safe and happy Juneteenth.
