Ayotte Statement on 13th Anniversary of 9/11

Statement

U.S. Senator Kelly Ayotte (R-NH) today issued the following statement on the 13th anniversary of the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks:

"Thirteen years ago today, nearly 3,000 innocent Americans were murdered in the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks against our country. The pain of their loss endures, and today we pray for their families and renew our vow that we will never forget. We call to mind the courageous first responders, military men and women, and ordinary citizens who acted heroically in the face of evil and unimaginable horror on that terrible day.

"Today we also remember the four Americans killed two years ago in the terrorist attack on the U.S. mission in Benghazi, Libya. We honor the memory of Ambassador Chris Stevens, Tyrone Woods, Sean Smith, and Glen Doherty, and we will not rest until all of the terrorists responsible for their murder are brought to justice.

"The threats to our country have grown, and it is more important than ever that we stand united, remain vigilant, and provide those who protect our country with the resources they need to carry out their missions."
