SUMMARY:25 Years After 9/11: The Threat Has Evolved-Have We?
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER HERE: https://ajc.ticketspice.com/25yearsafter911\n\nTwenty-five years ago\, America watched in horror as nearly 3\,000 innocent lives were taken in the deadliest terrorist attack in our nation’s history. In the aftermath\, we vowed to remember the victims\, honor the heroes\, and never forget the evil that struck our homeland.\nBut remembrance alone is not enough.\n\n A quarter-century later\, the threats confronting America have not disappeared—they have evolved. Islamic terrorism\, jihadist ideology\, state-sponsored extremism\, Sharia-based movements\, and emerging ideological dangers continue to challenge our security\, our freedoms\, and our way of life. The tactics may have changed\, but the determination of those who seek to undermine America has not.\n Join us for a powerful and thought-provoking luncheon on the 25th anniversary of September 11 as we pay tribute to the lives lost\, recognize the extraordinary courage of the heroes who answered the call\, and confront the difficult questions America can no longer afford to ignore.\nWhat have we truly learned since 9/11? What warning signs have we overlooked? How have the threats changed—and are we prepared for what comes next?\n This will be more than a memorial. It will be a call to remembrance\, vigilance\, courage\, and action.\nWe owe it to those we lost to remember the past. We owe it to future generations to understand the present and prepare for tomorrow.\nREMEMBER. HONOR. UNDERSTAND. PREPARE. NEVER FORGET.\n\n Friday\, September 11\, 2026 11:30 AM–1:30 PM Hilton Garden Inn10350 N. Central ExpresswayDallas\, TX 75231\n\nOUR SPEAKERS INCLUDE:  Samantha HorwitzA former U.S. Secret Service agent\, 9/11 first responder\, and survivor of the North Tower who brings a deeply personal account of courage\, trauma\, resilience\, and the enduring human impact of that fateful day.\n John SalernoA 9/11 first responder\, retired NYPD detective\, and firefighter who participated in the search-and-rescue effort and now shares a powerful firsthand story of service\, sacrifice\, survival\, and life after September 11.\n Todd BensmanA leading border-security and counterterrorism expert\, former DHS senior adviser\, and current Heritage Foundation senior research fellow who will examine how vulnerabilities at America’s borders intersect with evolving national-security threats.\n Frank GaffneyA former Reagan Pentagon official and nationally recognized defense-policy strategist who has spent decades sounding the alarm about jihadist ideology\, Sharia supremacism\, hostile foreign powers\, and threats to American sovereignty.\n John GuandoloA former FBI counterterrorism specialist and decorated Marine combat veteran whose work exposes the doctrine\, organizations\, and domestic networks driving the jihadist movement—and what America must do to confront them.\n Debbie GeorgatosHost of America\, Can We Talk?\, former litigation attorney\, and RNC Committeewoman for Texas who brings a compelling voice to the conversation about vigilance\, American resolve\, and defending the freedoms our enemies sought to destroy.\n\nA % of all event proceeds will be donated to the ‘Tunnel to Towers Foundation’ which which honors the heroes of 9/11 by providing mortgage-free homes and critical support to fallen first-responder families\, Gold Star families\, catastrophically injured veterans and more!\n Reserve your seats today and join us for this powerful and impactful luncheon! \nSee less
