AG Blanche: The Real Story Is What We’ve Done Since 9/11

EXCERPT:

BLANCHE: “So, this — look, what we have done and what you heard the president say today, what you heard the Secretary of War say today, what I’m going to say later today here in D.C. is we can — we can talk about the horrible events of 9/11. But then, the real story is that, what the great things the country has done since then and how a generation of fighters, of warriors, of police officers, of firefighters — what we’re doing at the Department of Justice, if you look at the 9/11 victim compensations fund, given out almost $19 billion since it started to not only the first responders and the families of those who died, but other folks who have had devastating health effects from 9/11 in lower Manhattan and here in Washington, D.C., at the Pentagon. So, we say all the time, never forget.”
