On this hallowed day we remember the people we lost on September 11th, the selfless courage of our first responders, and the sacrifices made by Americans in uniform on that day and the days since. Though much time has passed and much has changed, we will not forget them, or our shared sense of purpose as a nation that brought us together in the aftermath of 9/11.”
