WASHINGTON – Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.) released the following statement marking the first anniversary of the Bourbon Street terrorist attack in New Orleans.
“New Year’s Day should be a celebration of the year to come. But for 14 families, today is the first anniversary of the worst day of their lives.
“One year ago, a terrorist killed 14 innocent people as they celebrated the new year on Bourbon Street in New Orleans. It was pure, unadulterated, objective evil.
“As we remember the horrors of the attack, we also need to remember the heroes. The heroes who risked their lives to stop the terrorist and rescue those in need. And we remain grateful to the New Orleans Police Department and all first responders for their unimaginable bravery on that day.
“So, to the families of the victims, I am so, so sorry for your loss. All of Louisiana is praying for you on this difficult day.”
