Today marks 25 years since the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
 
For Chairman Bost and many of the veteran members who serve on our Committee, this day is deeply personal.
 
For many of them — like so many veterans and military families — the events on 9/11 changed the course of their life as they ran towards danger, defended our American way of life, and served overseas in the years that followed.
 
We will never forget the 2,977 everyday Americans who lost their lives in New York, Virginia, and Pennsylvania on this tragic day.
 
There is an inscription on the National 9/11 Memorial Museum in New York City that reads, “No day shall erase you from the memory of time.”
 
25 years later — we proudly uphold that promise.
 
The steel of American resolve will continue to honor, remember, and tell the stories of those Americans — and the thousands of service men and women who gave their lives in the years that followed.
 
We will . 🇺🇸
