Plain-English summary
Expresses the sense of Congress that: (1) a Liberty Day should be celebrated annually in the United States as a remembrance of both the freedom that Americans were given in the Declaration of Independence and the rights and liberties that Americans were given in the Constitution; and (2) elected and previously-elected representatives of the people who voluntarily give of their time to speak to Americans about those founding documents deserve our thanks.
