Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani attended the commemoration service for the 22nd anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks held at the national memorial in the city.
Giuliani served as the Republican mayor of New York from 1994 to 2001, and he had a major role in the response to the attacks on the World Trade Center towers.

“We remember the innocent lives lost and honor the firefighters, police officers, first responders, and everyday New Yorkers who demonstrated extraordinary courage and selflessness on September 11th, 2001,” Giuliani wrote on X, sharing images from the day of the attack. “We remember their names, their faces, and their unwavering dedication.”
As we reflect 22 years later, let us not only remember the tragedy but also the triumph of the human spirit that emerged from the darkness.

Giuliani, an ex-attorney for former President Donald Trump, earned the title of “America’s Mayor” and was named Time's person of the year in 2001 for his leadership during the aftermath of the worst terrorist attack on America.
Giuliani served as Trump's personal lawyer in high-profile cases such as the investigation into the former president’s alleged campaign collusion with Russia during the 2016 election.
He now faces a mountain of legal troubles after he was indicted in Georgia last month on charges of acting as Trump’s co-conspirator for allegedly trying to overturn the state's 2020 election results. Giuliani is reportedly struggling to pay the damages, fees, and sanctions he owes in connection to Trump’s 2020 election cases.
I often think of the innocent lives lost and of the firefighters and police officers who demonstrated courage and selflessness on our darkest day.

Giuliani joined the families of those who died on 9/11 in a commemoration at ground zero. While President Joe Biden was not present at the service, Vice President Kamala Harris was in attendance, along with Democratic New York Sens. Chuck Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand. Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) also met with families in the city on Monday. Local leaders such as Gov. Kathy Hochul (D-NY) and Mayor Eric Adams were in attendance.
“Their legacy lives on in the hearts of their families, friends, and loved ones,” Giuliani said. “It lives on in the resilient spirit of the survivors who carry the scars, both visible and invisible. It lives on in the collective memory of a nation that cherishes their heroism and draws strength from their example.”
