By Jim McNally | Statesville R&L U.S. Representative Virginia Foxx (NC-05) released the following statement today as America marks the 8th anniversary of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks: "Eight years ago thousands of innocent Americans lost their lives in an unprecedented assault on our nation. Today the memory of their sacrifice spurs us to hallow this day and cherish the freedoms that came under attack eight years ago. "In the eight years since 2001 many more American patriots have given their lives in the fight against terrorism. Let us remember that their blood is not shed in vain and hold firmly to the inalienable rights and freedoms given us by our Maker, which, etched on the souls of all mankind, can not be defeated. "Today I pray for God's comfort for all those who have suffered and lost because of the horror of that day eight years ago. And I pray that God gives us the strength to unite, despite our differences, around the cause of liberty for all." |
