HEARINGS  
Megan L. Marshall said September 11, 2001 is a day etched into many of  
our hearts, it’s not just as a day of tragedy, but a moment that has forever  
shaped our lives. For veterans and first responders September 11th is  
personal, it was a reminder of why we put on the uniform, why we swore  
an oath to defend our country, and why we continue to stand ready. So  
let us carry the memory of that day, not as a burden, but as a testament  
to the resilience, courage, and unity shown to one another that day  
because that defines America and that’s who Americans are. Chairman  
Marshall asked for a moment of silence.
