Today, Congresswoman Lucille Roybal-Allard (CA-40), the Ranking Member on the House Homeland Security Appropriations Committee, issued the following statement on the anniversary of the attacks of September 11, 2001:
“Fourteen years ago today, we watched in horror as our nation was attacked by terrorists. We will never forget the tragic events of that day. Nor will we forget the memories of the victims of 9/11, or our country’s heroes who responded to the terror of those attacks.
“Today, we pay tribute to them, and to our brave men and women in uniform, our DHS personnel, and our first responders, who work every day to keep our country safe. Americans owe each and every one of them an immense debt of gratitude for their constant and unwavering vigilance in protecting the homeland.”
