                       AMERICA WILL SEEK JUSTICE

  (Mrs. TAUSCHER asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Mrs. TAUSCHER. Mr. Speaker, like many of my colleagues, last night, 
in spite of the horror and terror of what happened yesterday, I went to 
bed knowing where my family, my immediate family, was and with a sense 
of relief.
  That is not true for many of the constituents in my District and in 
the Bay area, obviously the surviving families of the folks that were 
on the planes, the rescuers and the victims in New York, and the 
members of our military and the civilian employees at the Pentagon. Too 
many Americans last night went to bed not knowing where their families 
were.
  One of my constituents was on United Flight 93 from Boston, and he 
was able to call his family and tell them that he loved them. We offer 
the condolences to the Burnett family of San Ramon and the many other 
families in the Bay area, to be known, that we lost yesterday, great 
Americans, Americans to whom we pledge that we will not rest, we will 
not rest until we find the people that damaged the psyche and the 
hearts of the American people forever. We will not rest and we will 
find them and we will bring them to justice.
