U.S. Rep Gregory W. Meeks Statement on 14th Anniversary of Attacks on September 11, 2001
WASHINGTON, D.C. - Congressman Gregory Meeks released the following statement regarding the 14th anniversary of the attacks on September 11, 2001:
“On the 14th anniversary of 9/11 we remember those Americans who lost their lives and their families, and we honor the courageous sacrifice of those brave first responders and volunteers who risked it all to help. As a New Yorker, this tragedy resonates strongly with me and my constituents, but while we endure the pain of the loss we are grateful for the resilience of the American people. Today, the new World Trade Center stands as one of the tallest buildings in America, the leader of Al Qaeda and other top members have been brought to justice, and Americans proudly unite to honor the legacy of the victims. May God bless America.”
