SENATOR NELSON’S 2011 HOLIDAY MESSAGE

 Nebraska’s Senator Ben Nelson released the following message for the upcoming Christmas holiday season:
“This is Senator Ben Nelson wishing my fellow Nebraskans happy holidays, Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year.
“This is a wonderful time of year. The warmth and joy of the season draw friends and family together to worship and celebrate. It is a time to be thankful for what we have and to be optimistic for a peaceful and prosperous future.
“I hope your holidays are full of cheer.
“It is only fitting to pause during this festive season to reflect on the sacrifice of the men and women in our military who can’t be home for the holidays, as well as those who are on their way home right now from Iraq.
“Their service is what gives all Americans the freedom to celebrate this time of year as we choose.
“I hope all will soon complete their missions and return home with the gift of Peace on Earth and good will to all.
“Have a merry Christmas and a joyous holiday season.”
