George W. Bush: “Education is the gateway to opportunity and the foundation of a knowledge-based, innovation-driven economy.”

Is it in our national interests that 25 million people who would have died now live? I think it is, and so do you.

On this day of prayer, Laura and I are holding up our fellow Texans who are hurting.

We know our words cannot help, but we believe the prayers of so many Americans will.

We are heartbroken by the loss of life and the agony so many are feeling.
