As we recognize French-American Heritage Month this July, it's a great moment to reflect on the profound and enduring relationship between the United States and France. This year holds particular significance as we commemorate the 80th anniversary of D-Day, a pivotal event in World War II that underscored our shared commitment to democracy, justice, and the rule of law - the core tenants of AGA’s International Rule of Law Program. The collaboration and sacrifices made during D-Day exemplify our collective resolve to protect these ideals against tyranny and oppression. As state attorneys general, there are invaluable lessons to be drawn from this shared history. The cooperation exhibited during the Normandy landings demonstrates the strength of unity in the face of adversity. Today, as we navigate complex international legal landscapes, this spirit of collaboration remains crucial.
