On the recordNovember 13, 2001

I say this because all of us in the Congress and the country really have to treat each other with more civility and more dignity and be more aware of those who give their lives and help ease the pain when communities suffer something like this. These people who left to go to Santo Domingo for Thanksgiving or Christmas to have family reunions left behind people who will never see them again. It is just a reliving in a lesser way the nearly 5,000 people who are dead or presumed to be dead as a result of the tragedy of September 11.
