Call for Justice for 9/11 Victims
And my uncle, Stephen Gerard Hoffman.
Uncle Stephen, we love and miss you, and as my dad says,
your twin, Greg, "Thank you for the memories.
They're the best part."
And my husband, Tom Strada, you are missed more with each
year that passes. But how can it be 25 years and
still we have no justice for the role that Saudi
Arabia played in your murder?
Yes, we finally made it into a court, and I proved that the
Kingdom of Saudi Arabia fomented a rancid culture of
anti-American terrorism around the globe and then sent its
agents to support the radical Islamist hijackers so
they could attack you and all of our loved ones.
But for 25 years, administration after administration,
including leaders in front of us here today, chose to protect the
Saudis instead of standing with the 9/11 families.
They withheld evidence. They vetoed JASTA.
They broke promises, both public and private.
It has been one betrayal after another.
President Trump can still change that.
Tell the Saudis to stop lying. Tell them that if they want to be
friends with the USA, they cannot continue to deny all
of this, all of the pain, all of the destruction
that we have all been suffering
through. Vice President Vance, thank you for being here today.
Please carry that message back. Stand with the
families.
Stand with the survivors. Stand with Americans.
As my husband Tom would have said, "That is always the right thing to do."
God bless all of us. God bless America.
