“Foundations of democracy.” Constitution Day marks the adoption of Italy’s constitution in 1947. In 2025, let’s reflect on the importance of democratic values, human rights, and constitutional integrity.

On Constitution Day, Italy reflects on the adoption of its constitution in 1947—a pivotal moment in the nation’s history that laid the foundation for democracy, human rights, and constitutional integrity. Today, we honor these principles, not only in Italy but around the world.

In 2025, we also celebrate the enduring sister city relationship between Vallejo, California, and La Spezia, Italy, which has thrived since 1985. Our cities stand as a testament to the power of cultural exchange and mutual respect, reinforcing the importance of democracy and human dignity on a global scale.

Let’s continue to champion the values that unite us—freedom, equality, and justice for all.
