We echo the sentiments of The Center for Rural Development today as we reflect on September 11, 2001. 🇺🇲

Today, we pause to remember and honor the lives lost on September 11, 2001, and the courageous men and women who selflessly answered the call to help others.

Twenty-five years later, we continue to honor their sacrifice, remember their courage, and reflect on the strength and unity shown in the face of unimaginable tragedy.

Their legacy remains forever in our hearts and in the history of our nation.

We Remember. We Honor. We Will Never Forget.
