At Ground Zero, 9/11 families turn to Trump as Obama’s old decision resurfaces

On a cloudy morning at the site where two sprawling towers once stood, the loved ones of New Yorkers killed on 9/11 gathered with a message for President Donald Trump: Release the unredacted files they believe could implicate Saudi Arabia.

Vice President JD Vance attended the ceremony alongside former Presidents George W.

Bush, Barack Obama, Joe Biden and Bill Clinton, as well as former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani and former Gov.

Andrew Cuomo were also among those in attendance.

The message was delivered on the main stage by Terry Strada, whose husband, Tom, was killed in the attacks.

Speaking from the memorial stage, Strada accused successive administrations of protecting Saudi Arabia instead of supporting the 9/11 families.

Strada called out President Barack Obama, who was at the memorial, for vetoing the Justice Against Sponsors of Terrorism Act, or JASTA, in 2016.

Congress later overrode the veto, allowing 9/11 families to sue Saudi Arabia over its alleged role in the attacks.

TRUMP SET TO HONOR 9/11 VICTIMS, FIRST RESPONDERS AT PENTAGON ON 25TH ANNIVERSARY "Administration after administration, including leaders in front of us here today, chose to protect the Saudis instead of standing with the 9/11 families," Strada said.

"They withheld evidence.

They vetoed JASTA.

They broke promises, both public and private.

It has been one betrayal after another." "President Trump can still change that," she said.
