Marco Rubio Comments On 9/11 Anniversary

Statement

U.S. Senate Republican nominee Marco Rubio today issued the following statement on the anniversary of the September 11th attacks:

"On this ninth anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, we remember the heroes who lost their lives that day and grieve with the loved ones they left behind. It's because of the selfless heroism of first responders and passengers that countless lives were saved in the World Trade Center, the Pentagon and on the ground.

"Today, we give thanks to the brave men and women of our armed forces, intelligence community, law enforcement and public safety agencies, whose efforts have prevented another similar tragedy on U.S. soil. Especially today, they deserve our respect, admiration and appreciation for all they have done to keep us safe.

"The world remains a dangerous place in the face of a persistent Islamic jihadist threat. As we remember 9/11, we should find a renewed and united sense of purpose to protect America and our cherished freedoms.

"As I commemorate 9/11 today in Orlando and Sarasota, my thoughts and prayers will be with those we lost, those they left behind and everyone working to prevent another tragedy like this."
