Political Quotes

“Mr. Speaker, 10 years ago, in one of the most tragic moments of our country's history, terrorists hijacked commercial jetliners to murder nearly 3,000 innocent people on American soil. In this darkest hour, the people of our Nation came together to grieve, mourn, and remind each other: We are still one Nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. On this 10th anniversary of the September 11th attacks, I want to highlight how America's resolve that day was challenged but not broken. In the time since, our Nation has proven the resilience of the American people. The struggle to protect freedom and liberty is one that must be promoted both domestically and internationally--and our great Nation has answered the call. Let us remember the first responders and our military that have served and are currently serving near and far to protect our freedoms here at home. I will always be grateful for those making a difference by defeating terrorists overseas to protect American families at home. Most importantly, let us not forget the victims of the September 11th attacks, their families, the memories of that fateful day, and the constant challenges our country faces in winning the global war on terrorism. In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never forget September the 11th in the global war on terrorism. ____________________”
