This week, U.S. Sen. Rick Scott, R-Fla., introduced a resolution “remembering the December 6, 2019, terrorist attack at Naval Air Station Pensacola and commemorating those who lost their lives, and those who were injured, in the line of duty” with the support of U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla.

“Today, we remember the lives of three brave Americans we tragically lost. Joshua Kaleb Watson, Mohammed Haitham and Cameron Walters dedicated their lives to serving and protecting our country, and are missed every day by their friends, family, and all who knew them. This act of terror never should have happened, and following the attack, I fought for significant reform through my Secure U.S. Bases Act that became law, and I will never stop working to make sure our bases are safe and this never happens again. Although it has been four years, the pain caused by the loss of these sailors will never go away. I am honored to stand with my colleagues today to recognize the lives we lost on that tragic day four years ago that shook the Pensacola community and our nation,” said Scott.

“Four years ago, three of our brave service members tragically lost their lives in a senseless act of terror at NAS Pensacola. Today, we remember their legacies of bravery and heroism, and honor the first responders who responded that day,” said Rubio.

Alabama Republican U.S. Sens. Katie Boyd Britt and Tommy Tuberville and Georgia Democrats U.S. Sens. Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock also co-sponsored the resolution.

The Senate passed the resolution without opposition.
