tonight we stand with our President as our Nation prepares to do battle with those who seek to destroy the American way of life. Tonight we vote to give our President full authority to use America's full military might against those responsible for this week's despicable attacks against the United States and its people. A strong response to the deplorable attacks on the United States is essential. The terrorist infrastructure must be destroyed, and the message must go out to all who seek to harm us in the future that America will respond to cowardly acts of violence against our people quickly and decisively. These are dark days for America, but we will work together to seek justice for the victims of terrorism and to ensure that such contemptible acts never again occur. Mr. Speaker, I urge support of the resolution. God bless America.
