Today marks 25 years since a group of Islamic Jihadists launched terror attacks that took 2,977 innocent lives. We gathered in Clay County this morning to honor the victims of 9/11 and the heroes who risked their lives to save others. At Ground Zero, firefighters, police officers, and EMTs rushed into the smoke clouds and rubble, braving unthinkable danger to rescue as many people as they could. Hundreds of first responders—and passengers on United Flight 93—made the ultimate sacrifice so that others could live. We will always remember their heroism and owe them a profound debt of gratitude. The 9/11 terror attacks were motivated by a foreign belief system that is still a major aspect of not just the Middle East, but increasingly Europe and even the United States. We should be clear-eyed about the threat posed by Islamic Jihad and do all we can to ensure Never Forget means Never Forget.
