January 8, 2011 is a day seared into memory of our community, our state and our nation. The shooting that occurred at U.S. Congresswoman Giffords' Congress on your Corner event in Tucson wounded thirteen and killed six individuals who were participating in a fundamental act of democracy. In the months that followed the tragedy a group of survivors, family members and community leaders began discussing the need for a permanent memorial to remember and honor those that perished or were injured as a result of assassination attempt against Congresswoman Giffords at the Congress on Your Corner event on January 8, 2011.
