Everyone. Thank you so much for joining me. Im fredericka whitfield. Today marking 20 years since September 11th, 2001. 2,977 people died on that day in the deadliest Terror Attack in history. In ceremonies at all three Attack Sites this morning, victims names were read aloud. In New York, people came together to mark this solemn day. Children placing flowers for Loved Ones. They never got to meet. Men and women in tight embrace, mourning those they lost. And three President S and First Ladies were on hand for the memorial in Lower Manhattan. Tolling bells followed by moments of silence marked to the minute when the planes hit the Two Towers and when each of them fell. At the pentagon, an American Flag was draped down the side of the building before the names were read there. Jay joseph ferguson. Amelia v. Fields. And in shanksville, pennsylvania, the president and First Lady Laying A Wreath in the memory of the everyday heroes who took down Flight 93 and stopped it from reaching its intended target, the nations capitol. Across all three of those sites today, we have seen outpourings of raw Grief And Emotion alongside proud declarations of patriotic resolve. President s, past and present, and other top officials joining everyday people at the days many ceremonies. Polo sandoval joining us now from New York with more on this. Polo, we saw a lot. A lot of emotion and a lot of hope displayed at so many different ways. Reporter and a lot of powerful moments too, fred. One of them happened an hour ago when the solemn task we heard echoing through Lower Manhattan ending, at least signaling the end of that particular ceremony, as you mentioned, the Commander In Chief starting a full day of attending multiple memorials by making the stop here in New York earlier this morning. At dawn, the unfurling of a flag over the side of the Pentagon Hit by Jet Liner 20 years ago signaled the beginning of the day of tributes. Its one of three sites where americans gathered in somber remembrance, honoring each one of the 2,977 people killed in the Attacks'>Terrorist Attacks on September 11th. At the footprints where the Twin Towers proudly stood over Lower Manhattan, president Joe Biden and the Ferus Lady joined by the obamas in a sea of 9 11 families to memorialize those lost two decades ago. At 8 46 a. M. , the first of six moments of silence marking the Instant The First Hijacked Airliner struck the north tower. Close daughter sarah was a Flight Attendant on that plane. As we recite the names of those we lost, my memory goes back to that terrible day. When it felt like an evil specter had descended on our world and was also a time when many people acted Above And Beyond the ordainary. Reporter the nation pausing five more times. The moment each twin tower fell, when the pentagon was attacked, and the moment united Flight 93 crashed into The Field in pennsylvania. It is truly an honor to be with all of you at this field of honor. Reporter along with Vice President Kamala Harris, President George W. Bush who served as Commander In Chief in 2001 helped lead a memorial at that site. The 33 passengers and seven crew of Flight 93 could have been any group of citizens selected by fate. In a sense, they stood in for us all. The terrorists soon discovered that a random group of americans is an exceptional group of people. Reporter and at the pentagon, general mark millie, chairman of the joint chiefs honored the victims and those who died at the subsequent war in afghanistan. Never forget those murdered by terrorists. Never forget those who rushed to save their lives and gave theirs in exchange. Never forget the sons and the daughters, the Brothers And Sisters and the mothers and fathers who gave their tomorrows for our todays. Reporter tonight, the sky over Lower Manhattan lights up again with the annual tribute and light, a reminder of the Nations Resilience and iconic symbol honoring those killed at the nations unbreakable spirit. It is precisely today that new York Governor Kathy Hochul Signs Legislation meant to help World Trade Center responders. The series of bills signed just today to mark the anniversary, fred. Its supposed to basically expand the criteria for those who responded to the World Trade Center site and make it easier for them to apply for benefits online. Theres so many americans that participated in Rescue And Recovery efforts, really following the events that took place 20 years ago today. Polo sandoval, Thank You so much, in New York. Today, former President George W. Bush drew a parallel between the extremism that drove the 9 11 Attacks and the domestic terrorism fueling so many threats that continue on u. S. Soil today. Joining us right now from shanksville, pennsylvania, cnns paula reed. You were there as the former President Spoke. Reporter Flight 93. Of course, Flight 93 was one of four commercial airliners hijacked on 9 11, but it did not make it to its intended target, believed to be the u. S. Capitol because the 40 passengers and crew members on board banded together, voted and decided to storm the cockpit. So instead of crashing in washington, it crashed here in The Field in rural pennsylvania. And unity and americans coming together. That was really the theme of todays memorial. Vice president Kamala Harris and former President George W. Bush both gave remarks in tribute to the lives that were lost here in shanksville. And really interesting. Former president bush, his remarks are really making headlines because he touched on the unity that he observed when he was leaving the country in the days following 9 11 and how thats such a contrast to the current climate and also talked about the threat of domestic extremism. Listen to what he said. Weve seen growing evidence that the dangers to our country can come not only across borders, but from violence that gathers within. Theres little cultural overlap between violent extremists abroad and violent extremists at home. But then theres disdain for pluralism. In their disregard for human life. In their determination to defile national symbols. They are children of the same spirit and our continuing duty to confront them. Reporter Vice President Kamala Harris also touched on this idea of unity and how its really embodied in that collective effort aboard Flight 93. Following the memorial, Friends And Family members of those lost were able to go and visit the Crash Site and fredricka, that is so significant because they have been the ones really rushing to build this memorial. Some of them believe that not a lot of attention is paid to what happened here in shanksville. People are familiar with, of course, the World Trade Center and the pentagon Attacks, but people tend to forget what happened here and theyve recently finished this incredible memorial where you can come here and learn more about the sacrifices that were made and arguably, the lives that were saved because of what happened on Flight 93. Now, President Biden also paid a visit here. He and the First Lady, they laid a wreath in tribute to those lost, but the only president , current or former, we heard from today was george w. Bush in his remarks are the people talking about for the next few days. He was poetically blunt, shall we say. All right, paula read, Thank You. Arlette saenz from the White House. Reporter President Biden just left shanksville, pennsylvania, and now making his way to his final stop on this September 11th anniversary where he will visit the pentagon in arlington, virginia, and lay a wreath there. The president began his day at Ground Zero at the 9 11 memorial in new York City where he was accompanied by the former President S Barack Obama and Bill Clinton and Jill Biden and former First Ladies Hillary Clinton and michelle obama. The President Stood there as he listened to the names that were read of each individual who lost their lives in the September 11th attack. After visiting new York City, the president then traveled to shanksville, pennsylvania, where he laid a wreath in honor of those who lost their lives on Flight 93. One person whose name he laid the wreath in front of was a man named jeremy, 31 years old on Flight 93 and he was one of the men who strategized to overtake the hijackers who likely intended for that flight to hit the u. S. Capitol, but with that Heroism And Bravery of the passengers and crew on that flight, ultimately, that flight crashed into a rural field in pennsylvania. The president and First Lady laid a wreath there and then actually walked the Flight Path and saw that boulder where that impact site was. The president made an unannounced stop at the Shanksville Fire department. This was the Fire Department that was first on the scene on 9 11 at that Crash Site. The president has visited that Fire Department as Vice President back in 2012 and also last year in 2020, and he spoke to reporters while he was on site. Were still waiting to get the complete video of that moment, but he called the actions taken by those passengers and crews on Flight 93 as an act of genuine heroism. He also talked about the need to unite the country and for people to come together in the aftermath of September 11th and other major events. But the president also offered a defense of his decision to withdraw The American military presence from the country of afghanistan. That war began after the 9 11 Attacks in 2001 and take a listen to what the president had to say. If you had told anybody youre going to spend 300 Million a day for 20 years to try to unite the country after we got bin laden, after Al Qaeda was wiped out there, yeah, but guess what . Its already back up in places. Whats the strategy . Every place brought aid. Come on. Reporter so the next few hours, well see President Biden, First Lady Jill Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris and second Gentleman Doug Emhoff Laying A Wreath as they wind down this day of remembrance, 20 years after those Attacks on September 11th. Very long and heavy day. Arlette saenz, Thank You so much from the White House. Appreciate that. And then tonight on cnn, join Jake Tapper, robert de niro, leonardo dicaprio, and the families of September 11th. Shine a light begins tonight at 8 00. Also coming up, ill talk with the brother of a firefighter who died at the World Trade Center. But first, more sights and sounds from the 9 11 memorial.

This morning, Frank Siller honored his brother who lost his life on 9 11 by completing a 537 Mile Journey that ended where the Twin Towers once stood. Siller walked the final path through the Brooklyn Battery Tunnel, the same path his brother, steven, took 20 years ago today. Steven siller was a New York firefighter. He had just gotten off his shift at brooklyns squad one Fire Station when the first plane hit the north tower. Steven jumped in his truck to rush to the scene and when he realized the Brooklyn Battery Tunnel was shut down, he strapped 60 pounds of gear to his Back And Race through the tunnel on foot to the Twin Towers. Ultimately giving his life to save others. Joining me right now is Frank Siller, stevens older brother. Frank siller now the Chairman And Ceo of the tunnel to Towers Foundation. Frank, so good to see you. I mean, what a journey this continues to be for you. So on this somber day, you just walked in your brothers footsteps, completing that 537 mile never forget walk. Going through that same tunnel to Ground Zero. So express what you were feeling right now. It was very emotional, especially the last three miles. I started at the pentagon on august 1st. Walked to shanksville, pennsylvania, and then ended up here today walking through the tunnel with my family. I was thinking when i was going through the tunnel, i was thinking my brother, the day he was born. Im a lot older than him. Hes the youngest of seven kids and he was a little miracle. So i was 14 years younger than him. And then my father died a year and a half later, my mom died and he questioned to me, he said, frank, why was i even born . Why am i here . I said, steven, dont say that. Mommy and daddy love you so much. They brought you into this world and i dont know why they died, but god put you here for a reason and one Day Youll do something very special andresil. Im thinking of these things, a little boy orphaned and we raised him and then grew up to be this outrageous Human Being and loved being a Firefighter And Brother of the other family, of being a firefighter, and then on top of the world. Married, had five kids. He had everything. He was the happiest he ever was and then he does this deed, this act. Running through the tunnel with gear on his back and i was thinking of what he was thinking of that day and i really was totally overcome with emotion. But im very proud of the fact that i did this in memory of him. That is so beautiful. And it sounds like while your brother was questioning his very existence, his purpose in life, it sounds like, really, the Little Brother who always admires the big brother, youve always understood what his purpose is to be. In a strange way, does it seem like it was not at all a surprise that he would do this very courageous thing, you know, putting all this gear on his back and running right toward terror, danger . Yeah, no. It didnt surprise us at all. As a matter of fact, on September 11th, 2001, when the South Tower came down, i turned to my motherinlaw and said, i think i just lost my brother, and i didnt know. I didnt know how he got there. I didnt know if he was there. I get called over and over again, try to speak to him. Firefighter buddy called me during the day and said, on a list of missing firefighters and i said, rich, ive been trying to call him, ive been trying to call him and frank, its bad down here. Ive been talking to other firefighters. Its bad. I said, i could see, richard. He goes, no. Nobodys coming home. And his way of telling me my brothers not coming home. A day i wont forget but what he did, saving other peoples lives, giving up his own life. Firefighters, Police Officers, they gave their life. 2,977 murdered. But these first responders gave their life and they ran into that building. Saved the begg biggest Rescue Mn ever. Couldnt be more proud. Hes inspired many people to be a better person and to do good. That is so true. And so, i wonder, what is your hope, particularly this day forward because theres a generation who is completely detached from what happened on 9 11. Theyre really learning about it for the first time. What are you hoping, whether its a day like this or a remembrance like your brother, how are you hoping it will continue to inspire people . Well, first of all, i will always be talking about my brother and what he did. But the story of 9 11, theres so many stories. Steven is just a symbolic of the heroism that was that day. I think its so important that we do Teach Americans that we were under attack. Islamic terrorists try to kill as many americans as possible and they did kill 2,977. We dont want this to happen again. Plus, they have to know, like i said, all of these acts of courage. I promise you, the foundation will always focus on the fact we never forget. Its our first mission. Yes, we built the smhomes for o country. Mortgage free homes for Gold Star families. Pay off their mortgages and deliver mortgagefree homes for our first responders who die in the line of duty that leave young families behind but our first duty to make sure we never forget and i promise you, the tell the Towers Foundation will set on the big initiative to make sure that we never forget. Thats why called the never forget walk. We Thank You, Frank Siller, Thank You so much for all youve done. We Thank Your brother, steven, and the 2,996 others who certainly gave the ultimate sacrifice. Thank you so much. Thank you, and God Bless You and god bless america. Amen, frank.

On friday, a florida Appeals Court overturned a ruling allowing governor Ron Desantis Ban on mask mandates to stand but some of the states largest School Districts like Broward County say the Courts Decision will not immediately change their mask policies. Cases reported in the state have been on the decline, but remain high. The last week saw an average of over 14,000 per day. There were also over 2400 newly reported deaths last week alone. Joining me right now is dr. Nathan, emergency physician. Good to see you, doctor. How worried are you about this continued fight over masks in schools . Its definitely worrisome because Judges Shouldnt be making Public Health policy. This is about Public Health. It is not about politics or even about the law. Masks are clearly helped to reduce transmission and we should be embracing policies that allow that kind of masking, especially in schools where we have kids who arent vaccinated who are vulnerable. This is one of the layers that we can add to help to protect students. These kind of fights over masks are really wholly unnecessary and the recommendations should be based on science and whats best for Public Health. In a state like florida where Community Transmission rates remain high, how important is it for the government whether at the state or the federal level to try to put rules in place that would perhaps address either the covid numbers that continue to increase in certain areas . Well, it makes it even more important. Thats why these masks are critically important with a high Transmission Level and when you have a very susceptible population in kids under the age of 12 who cant get vaccinated, we should be doing everything in our power to protect that group and thats not what you have seen here. What the governor is doing here is really putting these kids in Harms Way as we see pediatric cases tick up and Icu Beds be filled. We should be doing everything we can to protect that group until they have access to vaccines and even then, of course, we should still be doing everything we can to protect them. And what are your thoughts on President Biden instituting new rules requiring vaccinations for federal workers . Is it your hope that perhaps it will invite more private industries to do the same or perhaps even be somewhat of contagious to states who have been for so long, resisting, encouraging vaccinations . President bidens plan has a lot that we should like. What its doing is really tapping into all of the different tools that we have in our kit to help fight this pandemic and the first real comprehensive plan looking at all those tools. Its not just about vaccines. Its about masking. Its about testing. Testing was a huge stress in this plan and we need to put more stress on how were doing testing. Supporting hospitals. Financial support. And using policy to back these mandates. What we need to see is really a more proactive response going forward of what we can do to anticipate the next and put in more rules to stem this pandemic. And yes, mandates are important, the mandates we have are great but we need more of those. A travel mandate. If you travel domestically on a flight, you have to be vaccinated. We should be seeing a strong recommendation from the cdc saying that all children over the age of 11 should be vaccinated in order to be in school. We should see very strong mandates coming forward. Everybody whos eligible for a vaccine in a School Setting should be vaccinated. And we should see the government helping to support and push that forward. So i think that the plan helps but we really could expect more and should expect more in the coming weeks and months to come out and support our fight against the pandemic even more. Dr. Anand swaminathan, Thank You. Businesses with 100 employees or more may need to make sure vaccinated or tested once a week for covid all a part of stringent new Vaccine Rules imposed by President Biden, which are getting some fiery pushback in some corners. Well talk more about that next. Tomorrow night on cnn, join Jake Tapper as he asks tough questions about americas longest war. What went wrong in afghanistan.

The White House said it could be a matter of weeks before President Bidens new Testing And Vaccine mandate for certain employers goes into effect. The new Vaccine Rules impact as many as 100 Million americans including federal workers, Health Care staff, and employees of large companies. Cnns Matt Egan has more on how businesses are reacting. Hi, fredricka. These are aggressive steps from the white House And Underscore concern about the direction of the pandemic and the economic recovery. President biden said the goal is to protect vaccinated workers from their unvaccinated coworkers. Some major companies have already announced Vaccine Mandates including united airlines, Tyson Foods and facebook but many companies havent and thats going to need to change. Officials say the government will take Enforcement Actions against businesses that dont comply, including fines of up to nearly 14,000 per violation. While many republican governors are blasting bidens new vaccine order, and promising to sue, some Business Groups are cheering. The powerful Business Round Table led by Walmart Ceo Doug Mcmillen said it, quote, welcomes the biden administrations continued vigilance in the fight against covid. The National Association Of Manufacturers said americans can be grateful for bidens focus on vaccinations but Stress Requirements must be structured in a way that doesnt negatively impact the operations of manufacturers. Other Business Groups say the devils in the details of how these new requirements are structured. The White House is boosting Emergency Loans to small businesses hurt by the pandemic. Small businesses can now take up to 2 Million in the longterm loans thats up from just half A Million Dollars now. These loans dont need to be repaid for two years and used by Business Workers or pay down debt during the pandemic. Fredricka, these steps come as theres mounting evidence of the Delta Variant slowing the economic recovery. Restaurant Reservation And Air travel have taken a hit. More companies including microsoft and American Express are delaying their return to office and hiring slow dramatically in august. Fredricka, President Biden is clearly taking action to save lives, but make no mistake, these steps are also designed to boost the recovery that is losing momentum. Matt beegan, Thank You so m for that. Several lawmakers claim the mandate is Government Overreach and call it unconstitutional and some are vowing to challenge it in court. A former federal Prosecutor And Defense attorney. Always good to see you. Is this Vaccine Mandate constitutional . Will it hold up in court . I think it will, fredricka, which certainly doesnt mean it wont be challenged in court, but its a very smart legal move on the part of the biden administration to use the Osha Emergency regulations because its a Workplace Safety Issue for the employees. Now, unfortunately, osha has not had a great Track Record in court. Over the last 30 years, theyve only done about nine of them Emergency Rules and some six of them were actually successfully challenged in court, but i think those are dwistinguishable. Industry specific, and this is unprecedented. This is a global pandemic, so i think its going to survive in court. And then here is the statement coming from Texas Governor Greg abbott, spokeswoman. The federal government needs to stop trying to run private businesses, texans and americans alike have learned and mastered the Safe Practices to protect themselves and their Loved Ones from covid, and do not need the government to tell them how to do so. So from the President S point of view, from the White House, i know it does make you chuckle a little bit considering whats happened in recent days and weeks there, but can the president try to enforce a mandate on private businesses as well . Oh, absolutely. And i think the key to that is that the private businesses have an effect on the interstate Commerce And Osha can regulate the safety for these workers and obviously, if the workplaces are unsafe, people are getting sick, thats going to impact the national economy as it already has. So i think they are on sound ground here and obviously, people like Governor Abbott are using this as a political moment. And they can certainly go to court and i think the danger is, fred, whether they can find a conservativeleaning federal District Court Judge who might try to enjoin the rules on a national basis. Thats kind of like the danger point. All right. And then yesterday, a state Appeals Court in florida handing down a major win for republican Florida Governor Ron Desantis when he reinstated a ban on mask mandates in school. How might this ruling potentially impact the legal fight in other jurisdictions over School Masks or masks worn in schools and being enforced as such . I think ultimately, its not going to have much of a Ripple Effect outside of that court and jurisdiction. These are going to be fights which are very much literally School District by School District. I mean, certainly, theyre going to try to rely on that to argue that theres a win here for antimask mandate folks but not binding on other courts and just used as a persuasive type of argument. I think this will be something that you see in many, many local skirmishes. Shan wu, good to see you. Be well. You too. First responders from across the country are honoring their fallen brothers and Sisters Today on this 20th anniversary of 9 11.

President biden is heading to california monday for a big rally in support of Governor Gavin Newsom ahead of this weeks Governor Gavin Newsom, if a majority of voters do that, he becomes the newest governor. Both candidates are painting the election as being about much more than just the california governors job. Lets bring in a columnist for Los Angeles times, author of hate monger. Good to see you. They say this race that national implications. Why does that remain the focus . It has national implications because california has been the most proimmigrant and racial justice states we have in the nation. Gavin newsom has been part of that implementing. His proimmigrant policies, more of those than we have seen from any previous governor. Turning this proimmigrant state and flipping it red and having somebody in power who values the majority of californians as far as racial justice and immigrant rights, thats going to embolden other antiimmigrant and xenophobic governors in other states, it could have implications for Immigration Reform in congress and perhaps most worry some, he could appoint a replacement for Senator Dianne Feinstein if anything were to happen to her. Larry elder himself said he would appoint somebody that represents his values, which are antiscience. He doesnt believe in doing anything about climate change, he doesnt believe in having any mandates, masking mandates, any Vaccine Mandates for covid whatsoever and plans to scale back Progress California made on immigrant rights over the past few decades. All our sanctuary policies, Health Care for undocumented immigrants as well as immense investments in the public education system. It would have broad repercussions. On the local level, there are other issues that are vital. The economy, homelessness, covid, the environment, the drought, continued drought. Are those issues where these candidates and even the incumbent are getting the attention of voters . Well, larry elder, republican frontrunner, made a huge deal out of the Homelessness Problem that we have in california and thats been a major theme in fox news propaganda, antinewsom propaganda, Anticalifornia Propaganda played an outsized role in this election. But the fact of the matter is theyre distorting the reality which is that homelessness in california as a result, it is a result of Housing Prices here, but all of that is not due to progressive policies that have been implemented in recent years, it is due to moderates and conservatives in california who resist affordable housing being built near their neighborhoods, so they mischaracterize this as being about progressive policies because people that are behind this election and it is so important to get the word out about this are antiimmigrant nativists and antiprogressives that want to discredit the Idea A Multi Racial Democracy can work. They want to discredit the idea if you have progressive policies that embrace racial diversity, that try to decrease economic, social and racial inequalities that thats, you know, that that can actually work, which is Something California has demonstrated. We have a long way to go, still have problems, but Governor Gavin Newsom has taken concrete steps to benefit the lives of the most vulnerable californians and working across people in this state. And theyre trying to cast him as somebody who hasnt done anything for the working class, but now youre starting to see the polls reflect the reality which is that most people approve of newsoms efforts in this state to decrease inequality, and the Latino Vote will be decisive. Early on, we were seeing polls talking extensively about that. Latinos makeup a large percentage of voters in california and will be decisive in this election, but they werent getting the information about all of the Things Newsom has done for them, you know, investing more heavily in public education than any Governor Weve ever seen, expanding Health Insurance to undocumented seniors, making sure our essential workers, farm workers, domestic workers were taken care of during the pandemic. Stimulus checks, providing housing for farm workers sick with covid so they dont get their families sick. Hes taken immense steps to protect the community. Early on, the polls did not reflect that because of the fact that latinos have been very much targeted with Disinformation On Social Media from the right wing but now that newsom has been directly campaigning in the communities, things are starting to shift and were seeing that.
