George W. Bush: “Tax relief came at the right time for the American economy and the American people.”

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

On behalf of the American people, Laura and I offer our sincere condolences to Betsy and the Wyeth family.

The American economy has consistently proven its strength and resilience in the face of shocks such as natural disasters, high energy prices, and the terrorist attacks of September 11.

We are very pleased that Alan Lowe has been selected by the National Archives and Records Administration as the director of the George W. Bush Presidential Library and Museum.
