At the invitation of Penn State’s College Republicans, I had the honor of speaking at Penn State’s 9/11 memorial service alongside President Neeli Bendapudi, State College Mayor Ezra Nanes, and Congressman Glenn Thompson.
“Never Forget” isn’t a slogan but a duty. 25 years later, the lawn in front of Penn State’s Old Main was covered in American flags for the souls murdered on September 11, 2001.
Thanks to every student who planted a flag and everyone who showed up. Seeing you on that lawn gave me hope that “Never Forget” will continue to mean something for generations to come.
