H. Res. 795

                In the House of Representatives, U. S.,

                                                       October 7, 2009.
Whereas, on September 11, 2001, the passengers and crew of United Flight 93 
        courageously gave their lives, thereby thwarting a planned attack on our 
        Nation's Capital;
Whereas the Flight 93 crash site is a profound national symbol of American 
        patriotism and spontaneous leadership of citizen heroes;
Whereas the people of Shanksville, Pennsylvania, came together as a community to 
        protect the sacred ground and construct a temporary memorial where 
        Flight 93 crashed on September 11th;
Whereas the Flight 93 Ambassadors, created by members of the Shanksville 
        community after the tragic events of September 11th, have exhibited 
        selfless dedication and leadership by preserving and recounting the 
        heroic story of the brave intervention of the passengers and crew 
        against the terrorists to the memorial's visitors; and
Whereas in large part due to the efforts of the community and Flight 93 
        Ambassadors, Congress authorized the creation of a permanent national 
        memorial as part of the National Park System under Public Law 107-226, 
        the Flight 93 National Memorial Act: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
            (1) honors the Shanksville, Pennsylvania, community and Flight 93 
        Ambassadors for--
                    (A) their foresight, dedication, and leadership in 
                protecting the Flight 93 temporary memorial, the preservation 
                and sharing of the heroic story of the brave intervention of the 
                passengers and crew against terrorists; and
                    (B) their efforts to establish a permanent national memorial 
                to Flight 93; and
            (2) encourages the Secretary of the Interior and the National Park 
        Service to complete the Flight 93 National Memorial, as authorized by 
        the Flight 93 National Memorial Act, by the 10th anniversary of the 
        September 11th attacks.
            Attest:

                                                                          Clerk.
