Congressional Gold Medal for the Heroes of United Flight 93

We, the undersigned, would like to call for Congress to bestow the Congressional Gold Medal to the passengers and crew of United Flight 93. These ordinary U.S. citizens are truly National Heroes for their selfless act of sacrifice in fighting back against the terrorists on United Flight 93 and bringing down the plane in rural Pennsylvania rather than letting it be used in another suicide attack on Washington, D.C. These regular Americans from all walks of life, led by passengers Todd Beamer, Mark Bingham, Thomas E. Burnett Jr. and Jeremy Glick, fought back against the terrorists and sacrificed themselves to save numerous innocent people and protect the capital of the free world and are truly heroes and patriots.

Here is a list of the crew and passengers of United Flight 93: The Crew - Jason Dahl, Leroy Homer, Lorraine G. Bay, Sandra W. Bradshaw, Wanda A. Green, CeeCee Lyles, Deborah A. Welsh; The Passengers - Christian Adams, Todd Beamer, Alan Beaven, Mark Bingham, Deora Bodley, Marion Britton, Thomas E. Burnett Jr., William Cashman, Georgine Rose Corrigan, Joseph Deluca, Patrick Driscoll, Edward Felt, Colleen Fraser, Andrew Garcia, Jeremy Glick, Kristin Gould, Lauren Grandcolas, Donald F. Greene, Linda Gronlund, Richard Guadagno, Toshiya Kuge, Waleska Martinez, Nicole Miller, Louis J. Nacke, Mark Rothenberg, Christine Snyder, John Talignani, Honor Wainio. (At the request of the families, some of the names have not been released.)

These patriotic Americans showed honor and valor in fighting back against the threat of terrorism on behalf of freedom and all of the citizens of the United States of America and are truly deserving of the Congressional Gold Medal for their selfless act of heroism.
