Last october in our report, 28 pages. Terry strada of new jersey supports the bill, which has broad support among both parties in congress. It would allow u. S. Victims of 9 11 to hold the saudi government responsible for any role it allegedly had in the terrorist attacks. Strada lost her husband tom, a bond broker, in the world trade center. The people that are responsible need to be held accountable or they continue to act with impunity. Thats the problem. So lets just get it out in the light.

Inoculate from attack. What we have found time and again in our research is that voters are not inclined to believe that, but we do need to address that to make sure that they know that the facts on their side. And so this is actually good for hardworking families. This is also good for businesses. It saves money in terms of retraining and employee turnover. And that studies have proven that places where these pollicis in effect have seen no negative economic impact, so we need to take those attacks headon because we do have the facts on our side and we have the values on our side. And finally we want to explain why this matters for everyone. This is not just about the individuals who are going to see some benefit of this if these policies pass directly. But instead the workforce and the economy will be stronger so everyone will succeed. And it will also strengthen the future generation. This is going to set families up for a successful future not just now but for their children and fo
