We owe our World War II veterans - and all our veterans - a debt we can never fully repay.

In remembering those who lost their lives in the London attacks and the September 11th attacks we continue our commitment to fighting for freedom, democracy and justice.

We remain united with the British, and our allies around the world, in our resolve to defeat terrorism and bring those who commit these acts to justice.

In six short years, small business owners and family farmers will once again be assessed a tax on the value of their property at the time of their death, despite having paid taxes throughout their lifetime.

We will never forget and we will not relent until our job is done.

We know we must win the war on terror to protect innocent people and the freedoms that define our way of life.
