Congresswoman Virginia Foxx (NC-05) today joined the American people in observing the 5th anniversary of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Congresswoman Virginia Foxx (NC-05) today joined the American people in observing the 5th anniversary of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. “Today, all Americans remember the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. We mourn the loss of the thousands of innocent Americans who died that day and grieve with those who still ache for their loved ones. We will never forget the police officers, firefighters and rescue workers, heroes who courageously ran into the burning buildings to rescue those trapped inside, and the brave passengers on Flight 93 who laid down their lives to save others,” commented Foxx. As we continue to remember and mourn our fellow Americas who were killed on September 11, 2001, let us recommit ourselves to rooting out terror, wherever it may lie. We must remain eternally vigilant. As Ronald Reagan once said, ‘Above all, we must realize that no arsenal, or no weapon in the arsenals of the world, is so formidable as the will and moral courage of free men and women. It is a weapon our adversaries in today's world do not have.’ And we affirm once again our unshakeable resolve, that as long as terrorism threatens the life of even one innocent American we will fight against this evil,” Congresswoman Foxx concluded. ### |
