                               RESOLUTION


 
  Urging the release of information regarding the September 11, 2001, 
               terrorist attacks upon the United States.

Whereas tens of thousands of pages of documents relating to the terrorist 
        attacks of September 11, 2001, remain classified by the Federal 
        Government;
Whereas the contents of these documents are necessary for a full public 
        understanding of the events and circumstances surrounding the September 
        11, 2001, attacks upon the United States;
Whereas the decision to maintain the classified status of many of these 
        documents prevents the people of the United States from having access to 
        information about the attacks, including the involvement of certain 
        foreign governments; and
Whereas the people of the United States and the families of the victims of the 
        September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks deserve full and public disclosure 
        of the events surrounding the attack: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of Representatives 
that--
            (1) documents related to the events of September 11, 2001, 
        should be declassified to the greatest extent possible; and
            (2) the survivors, the families of the victims, and the 
        people of the United States deserve answers about the events 
        and circumstances surrounding the September 11, 2001, attacks 
        upon the United States.
                                 <all>
