Summary

Highlight any text to annotate
This resolution formally marks the 25th anniversary of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, in which hijackers crashed planes into the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, and a field in Shanksville, Pennsylvania, killing nearly 3,000 people. It expresses the House's condolences to victims' families, honors the bravery of first responders, military personnel, law enforcement, and passengers who fought back against the hijackers, and thanks foreign allies who have supported U.S. counterterrorism efforts. The resolution also commends those responsible for the operation that killed Osama bin Laden and reaffirms Congress's ongoing commitment to combating terrorism and providing resources to military, intelligence, and law enforcement agencies. It does not create new laws, programs, or funding, but is a symbolic statement of remembrance and resolve. As a final act of tribute, the resolution declares that the House will adjourn that day in honor of the victims.
