Rep. Sanford D. Bishop, Jr. (GA-02) released the following statement today after President Barack Obama announced that American forces killed Osama Bin Laden in Pakistan.

"We all remember where we were on September 11th when Al Qaeda attacked our country, but today we have finally brought the mastermind of those terrorist attacks to justice.
