September 11, 2001, was a terrible day in our nation’s history, but it brought out the best in us. It unified us as a country and reminded us of what we can accomplish when we stand together to help our fellow citizens. https://t.co/niAcjJa8Ra — PolitiTweet.org

In doing so, Senate Democrats said: No, we don't want to discuss that. We don't want to take it up. We don't want to vote on it. We don't want to improve it. We just don't want to do it. I don't think the American people will find that very reassuring. — PolitiTweet.org
