We were handed a tragedy, the reverberations of which still echo in our lives today. With enormous dedication and courage, first responders rushed into burning towers and into the Pentagon. Passengers took down a commercial jet to save others. Others too bore an incredibly disproportionate share of our country’s response to the attacks. Our military, the first responders, and their families - with enormous heroism - absorbed the consequences for us all with costs we cannot imagine. On this day, we honor them.
