“REMEMBERING THOSE LOST AND HURT IN THE TERRORIST ATTACKS IN MUMBAI”

 

Madam Speaker, in response to the unspeakably terrible acts of murder perpetrated on innocent people by a handful of vicious, hate-filled fanatics in Mumbai, the Asian American Commission of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts convened a candlelight vigil on December 4th at 6 PM in Boston and provided an opportunity for people of good will to express their horror at these terrible events and their determination to work together to prevent them from happening again. 

 

The Commission composed a moving, eloquent statement in response to these terrible acts and because its message is so necessary at this time, I ask that it be printed here.
