Presidential letters
Editor, The Commercial:
I retrieved a letter July 9 from my mail box from President Donald J. Trump, dated June 27, 2025. I will be adding it to the collection of presidential letters I have received over the years. I am truly grateful and deeply honored to be recognized as an “unelected African American” in our city and state.
Receiving letters from various U.S. presidents, regardless of their political affiliations, as well as medals, awards from organizations across America, inspires me to continue my work in Pine Bluff with even greater passion and commitment.
My mission is to uplift the lives of both youth and adults, giving praise to Almighty God in the name of the Lord God. Presidents George H.W. Bush and George W. Bush are not included.
