+title: "A Proclamation on Wright Brothers Day,\_2024"
+---
+
+On Wright Brothers Day, we celebrate the bold vision, steadfast
+determination, and transformative innovation of Orville and Wilbur
+Wright. Their aircraft, which completed the first sustained,
+controlled, and powered flight 121 years ago, forever altered the course
+of human history and took our Nation to new heights.
+
+ The Wright brothers embody the best of America’s grit, heart, and
+unstoppable spirit of ingenuity. Before they took to the skies that
+fateful December day, the Wright brothers had spent years conducting
+arduous research, redesigns, and dangerous trials. They were driven by
+the belief that what so many had written off as impossible could
+actually be done — that sustained, controlled, and powered flight was
+possible. And on the sand dunes of Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, on
+December 17, 1903, they were proven right — their aircraft, the Wright
+Flyer, took flight for 12 seconds. In less than a minute, that one feat
+altered our understanding of technological possibilities and human
+potential forever, laying the foundation for putting a man on the moon;
+breaking the sound barrier; and beginning a new, deeper exploration of
+our universe.
+
+ My Administration has been committed to building on their legacy of
+innovation and advancement. We have made improvements to modern air
+travel — from making airports more accessible through the Bipartisan
+Infrastructure Law to making air travel safer. And we have harnessed
+the spirit of American ingenuity in everything we do, like tackling the
+climate crisis, working toward ending cancer as we know it, and ensuring
+that the technologies of the future will benefit Americans for
+generations to come.
+
+ On Wright Brothers Day, we honor two visionary men from Dayton,
+Ohio, who chose to look to the sky with not just wonder but with an
+ambition to take Americans where no one had gone before. Because of
+their work, generations of visionary scientists, engineers, and dreamers
+and doers have followed in their footsteps, believing that, here in
+America, we do big things and nothing is beyond our capacity.
+
+ The Congress, by a joint resolution approved December 17, 1963, as
+amended (77 Stat. 402; 36 U.S.C. 143), has designated December 17 of
+each year as “Wright Brothers Day” and has authorized and requested the
+President to issue annually a proclamation inviting the people of the
+United States to observe that day with appropriate ceremonies and
+activities.
+
+ NOW, THEREFORE, I, JOSEPH R. BIDEN JR., President of the United
+States of America, do hereby proclaim December 17, 2024, as Wright
+Brothers Day.
+
+ IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this sixteenth day
+of December, in the year of our Lord two thousand twenty-four, and of
+the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and
+forty-ninth.
+
+ JOSEPH R. BIDEN JR.
