Response from our national leaders is beginning to be released. Senator Jeff Merkley congratulates President Obama's efforts in the success of the capture and killing of America's number one enemy: Osama Bin Laden Sunday. In a written statement, he says: " We will never forget the more than 3,000 American lives that were lost on September 11, 2001, and in other al Qaeda attacks, and this is a welcome measure of justice for their families and our nation." This milestone will serve as a reminder that when America commits itself to a goal, it will prevail.” 1110 KBND will bring you more information as it becomes available.
