Congressman Tom Cole (OK-04) released the following statement on the 28th anniversary of the tragic bombing that occurred at the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City on April 19, 1995.
“Twenty-eight years ago today, Oklahoma City was struck by an unconscionable act that shocked the world,” said Cole. “Since then, we have not forgotten the 168 innocent lives that were senselessly taken, nor the pain and suffering of those left injured and heartbroken. Though this tragic day changed our lives and left a mourning community, Oklahomans showed their strength of character. I will always be grateful for the courage and dedication of our first responders and the outpouring of support from citizens across the country. Today, we remember those we lost, remain grateful for those who helped us in our time of need and resolve to never let evil overcome the good and decency intrinsic to our Oklahoma values.”
