“As the U.S. marks 250 years of American independence, it is also marking 250 years of the work to keep the press free, a struggle the colonial printers began and that journalists carry forward today.” Fallen Journalists Memorial Foundation’s @BarbaraCochran shared her thoughts on America’s fight for a free press in Real Clear Politics: realclearpolitics.com/articles/2026/…

Last week, the BG team visited the Great American State Fair on the National Mall to see the scale of @Freedom250’s historic event in person and celebrate 250 years of freedom. 🎡

America’s 250th birthday is a powerful reminder of what this nation has achieved by leading with conviction and a belief in freedom and opportunity for all. Today, we celebrate the enduring strength of the United States and the values that continue to make it the greatest country in the world. Happy Fourth of July! 🇺🇸

Bernhardt Group Chairman @davidlbernhardt on Newsmax: The Great American State Fair highlights the greatness of our country and the goodness of the American people. 🇺🇸 @Freedom250

Be sure to tune in to "The Big Take" on Newsmax this evening at 5:30 pm! Our chairman, @davidlbernhardt, is joining Christina Bobb as she fills in for @edhenry to discuss what it takes to execute high-profile Independence Day events ahead of @realDonaldTrump's historic #Freedom250 celebration.

This week we gather to celebrate 250 years of American independence. It’s a special time for Americans to honor our nation’s past while looking ahead to a bright future. @Freedom250 has a range of events planned. In Washington, the Great American State Fair is well underway. It’s a warm up for the main show – the Salute to America Celebration and Fireworks on July 4th. These national observances build on the success of major July 4th celebrations during President Trump’s first term that truly raised the bar. Our Founder and Chairman, former Interior Secretary @davidlbernhardt, was instrumental in planning the “Salute to America” in 2019 and 2020, including music, military flyovers, a massive fireworks display, and an address by President Trump. Secretary Bernhardt also helped lead efforts to bring back the Mount Rushmore fireworks display in 2020, scheduled for July 3rd this week.

It’s not summer in Washington without the Congressional Baseball Game. What began in 1909 as a friendly competition among Members of Congress has evolved into one of Washington’s most recognizable traditions, while raising money for charities that support families and youth throughout the region. Our team was pleased to attend this longstanding Washington tradition and the organizations it supports across D.C. Congratulations to the Republicans on last night’s win!

Last week, we celebrated The Bernhardt Group's anniversary with many of the clients and partners who have supported our firm along the way. A special thank you to our stellar team and our friends who joined us to mark the occasion.

One year ago today, we launched The Bernhardt Group! Thank you to our clients for trusting us with your priorities, welcoming us as an extension of your team, and supporting our work.

Partner @ColeRojewski joined the @almondalliance annual conference to discuss federal advocacy priorities, trade dynamics, and the policy challenges shaping the future of the almond industry. Our team is grateful for opportunities to spend time with clients on the ground and work to strengthen the policy landscape for one of the nation’s most important crops.

Celebrations of America’s 250th anniversary are underway across the country. Few projects better represent our nation’s achievements than the Hoover Dam. It’s often noted that the ingenuity and scale of the Hoover Dam could not be replicated in today’s regulatory environment. How to alleviate regulatory roadblocks and advance permitting reform continues to dominate conversations in Washington, particularly as the administration looks to scale infrastructure and energy projects in support of its America First agenda. news3lv.com/news/local/hoo…
