Luetkemeyer: People of the United States of America Are Not Easily Shaken

Eight years ago today we watched as our country was ruthlessly attacked by a group bent on destroying our way of life. That day showed the world that the people of the United States of America are not easily shaken and are prepared to protect our rights and freedom.
U.S. Rep. Blaine Luetkemeyer (MO-9) today issued the following statement as our nation pauses and reflects on the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001:
“Eight years ago today we watched as our country was ruthlessly attacked by a group bent on destroying our way of life. That day showed the world that the people of the United States of America are not easily shaken and are prepared to protect our rights and freedom.
 
“On Patriot Day, we pause to remember the victims and the loved ones left behind. We ask that God will continue to watch over our country and the men and women who are serving in harm’s way to protect the rights of all Americans.”
