President Signs Public Health Security and Bioterrorism Bill
"Biological weapons are potentially the most dangerous weapons in the world," said President George W. Bush at the signing of H.R. 3448, the Public Health Security and Bioterrorism Response Act of 2002 in The Rose Garden Wednesday, June 12. "Last fall's anthrax attacks were an incredible tragedy to a lot of people in America, and it sent a warning that we needed and have heeded. We must be better prepared to prevent, identify and respond. And this bill I'm signing today will help a lot in this essential effort." White House photo by Susan Sterner.
