Burgum suggests America 250 will celebrate 'our shared values'

Interior Secretary Doug Burgum expressed his hope that the commemoration of the United States’s 250th anniversary will help its citizens “come together.”

Burgum appeared on ABC News’s Good Morning America to preview the celebrations that began on the first of the year on Thursday. Already, the Washington Monument, among the country’s national parks, has begun displaying a projected video on its walls about former President Theodore Roosevelt. This video will play at the top of every hour starting at 7 a.m. every day until Jan. 5. Burgum explained his mission behind America 250 events at over 60 National Parks.
