Those who have lost their precious children are facing a grief no parents should ever know.

Is it in our interest that 25 million people who would have died now live? I think it is. On behalf of a grateful nation, thank you for your hard work and God bless you.

Being your President was a high privilege, and the honor of a lifetime.

I applaud your Governor's response to that tragedy.
