If you have already signed and would like to change categories, please re-submit your signature, using the same e-mail address. As soon as your new signature is confirmed via e-mail, the old one will be deleted. Note that you will have to retype your comment, if you left one. This method could also be used to correct typos made in a previous comment.
Please Note: This petition is meant to provide a forum for this subject alone. It is a petition, not a bulletin board. We will not sanitize controversial remarks if the comments are primarily in support of the petition's purpose. But off-topic remarks are subject to removal on a case-by-case basis to keep the focus where it belongs. Thank you. Important Mention: Those who read back over the comments will find that from time to time we have highlighted excerpts to help those who only have time to skim a page get a sense of what people are thinking and feeling. We rarely do that now and it was never a methodical effort, but just a window on public opinion regarding this monumentally important issue. The important thing to know is that no comment matters more than any other. Each one is valued and helps make the case that the public was sidelined on something that mattered so much. TTA Note: Occasionally a current signature will disappear. When that happens it is because someone who has already signed the petition signs a second time and when the second signature is validated the two are automatically merged and appear in the original chronology. If someone leaves a second signature and comment, it automatically overwrites the earlier placement when the validation link is activated. If it isn't activated, or it is made using a different email address, there will be duplicate signatures. When we recognize that someone has signed before, we will delete the earlier entry and, if it was verified, verify the new one, since the clear intention is to make the new comment visible. We may decide to manually include the earlier comment at the end of the current message. Regarding anonymous signatures: Taking a stand using one's full name is always preferred, but when a name is withheld, the signature and sentiments are still of value. In every case, we have an email address that corresponds with the entry and is kept private. * Indicates that the signer has not yet activated the validation link, often due to spamblocking software. They are included out of respect for the sincerity of the comments. ![]() |
My dad helped with the recovery operations at the WTC for months. Of the 343 firefighters killed on 9/11, my dad knew about 50 of them. Make the skyline whole again! Rebuild the towers!
my uncle was at the world trade center the day of the attack. my uncle was a sheriff and tried to save as many people as he could.
Stand up and show the world – NYC is NOT IMPOTENT: rebuild the Towers!
never forget 343
I am the son of Retired F.D.N.Y. Lieutenant James Cierzniewski. He and myself lost what we considered 343 members of our family on September 11. The only right thing to do is to rebuild to show that these Brave few didn’t lose their lives in vain. Also to show we are stronger then ever before to those that are responsible for taking the lives of everyone that died innocently that day.
My cousin was murdered on 9-11 along with 342 other brave firefighters. That day, and the days that followed were all about loss and destruction, and rising above it all with unity and courage and a refusal to let those who were murdered that day be forgotten or lessened in any way. Rebuild the towers, rebuild the bravery and let that tell the story. Let it tell the story of all the heroes, and let them be a constant reminder of the enduring spirit of the American people.
The Twin Towers should absolutely be rebuilt to honor the memory of those who were killed. It would symbolize a strong America and show the world that the USA will continue to be strong and stay strong!
God Bless America
My father is retired FDNY. Many of our friends died that day. My aunt was on the 93rd floor. Growing up in Staten Island, I always loved the sight of the Towers when I looked at the City. Every time I pass the site where the twins were, I feel anger and rage. Those animals stole a part of my heritage. The Twin Towers were like the Grand Canyon, no picture or book could ever capture its awe-inspiring emotion. Rebuild the Twin Towers.
I remember them being built, worked on the site after 9/11 and would love to see them again.
