                      ATTACK ON THE UNITED STATES

                                 ______
                                 

                    HON. F. JAMES SENSENBRENNER, JR.

                              of wisconsin

                    in the house of representatives

                      Tuesday, September 11, 2001

  Mr. SENSENBRENNER. Mr. Speaker, September 11, 2001, is a date that 
will forever be etched in our memories as a day our very way of life 
was attacked. These acts of cowardice took the lives of innocent souls 
away from their families and friends. My thoughts and prayers go out to 
the families who lost loved ones and my thanks go out to all of the 
emergency personnel who risked their lives to save others.
  The perpetrators believe that our weakness is our freedom. They are 
so wrong. This will unite our country and they will soon know that 
freedom is our greatest strength. We should support President Bush and 
we should expeditiously make available all necessary means so that 
justice can be carried out. God Bless America.
