“Hornblower is proud to sign the Equity in Infrastructure Project Pledge and stand with organizations across the country working to build a more inclusive and competitive infrastructure marketplace,” said Stephen Edwards, CEO of Hornblower Group. “As the nation’s leading ferry operator, we recognize the responsibility and the opportunity we have to help expand access across the maritime and transportation sectors.

The EIP Pledge is a voluntary commitment to increase the number, size, and percentage of Historically Underutilized Businesses to grow into prime contractors, participate in joint ventures, or serve as equity participants. The pledge also encourages signatories to increase contracting opportunities for small businesses and first-time prime contractors, streamline procurement processes, improve payment times, expand access to financing and help grow the number of organizations committed to the pledge.
Hornblower’s participation builds on the company’s ongoing efforts to create more accessible and equitable opportunities throughout its global operations, helping drive economic growth and create pathways to success.
“Ferries are more than a mode of transportation — they are essential infrastructure that connect people, jobs, neighborhoods, and regional economies,” said Edwards. “By signing this pledge, Hornblower is affirming our commitment to ensuring that the future of infrastructure includes broader participation, stronger partnerships, and more opportunities for businesses and communities of all backgrounds.”

18 June 2026 – San Francisco, CA: The 250th anniversary of Independence Day is a once in a lifetime event to celebrate our history and to ponder what the next 250 years will bring. Pride In The 4th is calling on Americans of all backgrounds to show up at their local Independence Day celebrations and reclaim the US flag as a symbol that belongs to everyone. We encourage people to attend their local July 4th events while wearing or waving their flag of identity or heritage alongside Old Glory.
“America is a vast, beautiful and diverse nation. We are inviting people from all walks of life to embrace and celebrate that heritage on this solemn and historic occasion,” remarked Brian McConnell, creator and organizer of this movement.
Pride In The 4th is a non-partisan call to action to reclaim the US flag as something that represents all Americans. Whether you live in a small town or large city, this is an action you can take to affirm your love for America, while also expressing pride in your identity and heritage. Mr. McConnell will deliver a keynote speech, “Pride In America”, that will be livestreamed on the afternoon of July 4th (details to be shared at www.prideinthe4th.com).
“The United States flag does not belong to one party or group, it represents all of us. America was built by immigrants and all of us can trace our heritage to immigrant roots. That diversity is what unites us and makes us a great nation and this is an opportunity to celebrate and reflect upon that,” added McConnell.
ABOUT PRIDE IN THE 4TH: Pride In The 4th was created by Brian McConnell as an inclusive and affirmational call to action to celebrate the nation’s heritage and to bring Americans together around shared civic values.
