President, candidate plan appearances at memorial

President Donald Trump and Democratic challenger Joe Biden plan to go to the Flight 93 National Memorial in Pennsylvania on the 19th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.

The Flight 93 memorial near Shanksville, Somerset County, is trimming its usual 90-minute ceremony, partly by eliminating musical interludes.

Memorial spokeswoman Katherine Cordek said victims’ names would be read, but by one person instead of multiple family members.

Vice President Mike Pence is expected to attend two memorial ceremonies in New York.
