        Mr. Thomas, Mr. Thompson, Mr. Thurmond, Mr. Torricelli, Mr. 
        Voinovich, Mr. Wellstone, and Mr. Wyden):
  S.J. Res. 22. A joint resolution expressing the sense of the Senate 
and House of Representatives regarding the terrorist attacks launched 
against the United States on September 11, 2001; considered and passed.
  Mr. DASCHLE. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the text of 
the joint resolution be printed in the Record.
  There being no objection, the joint resolution was ordered to be 
printed in the Record, as follows:

                              S.J. Res. 22

       Whereas on September 11, 2001, terrorists hijacked and 
     destroyed four civilian aircraft, crashing two of them into 
     the towers of the World Trade Center in New York City, and a 
     third into the Pentagon outside Washington, D.C.;
       Whereas thousands of innocent Americans were killed and 
     injured as a result of these attacks, including the 
     passengers and crew of the four aircraft, workers in the 
     World Trade Center and in the Pentagon, rescue workers, and 
     bystanders;
       Whereas these attacks destroyed both towers of the World 
     Trade Center, as well as adjacent buildings, and seriously 
     damaged the Pentagon; and
       Whereas these attacks were by far the deadliest terrorist 
     attacks ever launched against the United States, and, by 
     targeting symbols of American strength and success, clearly 
     were intended to intimidate our Nation and weaken its 
     resolve: Now, therefore, be it
       Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the 
     United States of America in Congress assembled, That 
     Congress--
       (1) condemns in the strongest possible terms the terrorists 
     who planned and carried out the September 11, 2001, attacks 
     against the United States, as well as their sponsors;
       (2) extends its deepest condolences to the victims of these 
     heinous and cowardly attacks, as well as to their families, 
     friends, and loved ones;
       (3) is certain that the people of the United States will 
     stand united as our Nation begins the process of recovering 
     and rebuilding in the aftermath of these tragic acts;
       (4) commends the heroic actions of the rescue workers, 
     volunteers, and State and local officials who responded to 
     these tragic events with courage, determination, and skill;
       (5) declares that these premeditated attacks struck not 
     only at the people of America, but also at the symbols and 
     structures of our economic and military strength, and that 
     the United States is entitled to respond under international 
     law;
       (6) thanks those foreign leaders and individuals who have 
     expressed solidarity with the United States in the aftermath 
     of the attacks, and asks them to continue to stand with the 
     United States in the war against international terrorism;
       (7) commits to support increased resources in the war to 
     eradicate terrorism;
       (8) supports the determination of the President, in close 
     consultation with Congress, to bring to justice and punish 
     the perpetrators of these attacks as well as their sponsors; 
     and
       (9) declares that September 12, 2001, shall be a National 
     Day of Unity and Mourning, and that when Congress adjourns 
     today, it stands adjourned out of respect to the victims of 
     the terrorist attacks.
