Now, 18 years removed, it’s more important than ever that younger generations, many who never lived through or have no memory of that day, know the sacrifice, heroism and resilience of the American people: the brave firefighters who rushed into burning buildings to get others out; the passengers of Flight 93 who gave their lives to save countless others; the first responders who worked day and night to locate survivors.
For the victims, their families, and all who have served and continue to serve to keep us safe — we have not forgotten, and we never will.
In remembrance of all we lost 18 years ago, I’ve ordered all flags fly at half staff.
