USMCA - US Minority Contractors Association

This Memorial Day, we pause and salute this important and historic day in America, reflecting on the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our nation. Their legacy is etched into the very freedoms we enjoy today.

In recognition of this day of remembrance, all USMCA offices will be closed on Monday, May 25, 2026.

As an organization built on service, equity, and opportunity, we are deeply mindful of the price of freedom. On this day, we pray for the families of the fallen and identify opportunities to serve others in our communities, continuing the spirit of sacrifice and unity that defines Memorial Day.

Let this day be a moment not only of reflection, but of purposeful gratitude and renewed commitment—to our country, to one another, and to the values we uphold through our work. Spend time with your family and take a moment with your family to thank those who have sacrificed for your freedom

We thank you for being a part of the USMCA family, and we wish you a peaceful and meaningful Memorial Day.

With respect and remembrance,
USMCA Board of Directors and Executives
