In a rare bipartisan gesture, the entire Minnesota congressional delegation issued a joint statement Saturday to decry the shootings of state lawmakers Melissa Hortman and John Hoffman.
“Today we speak with one voice to express our outrage, grief, and condemnation of this horrible attack on public servants. There is no place in our democracy for politically-motivated violence,” the lawmakers said.
The statement was signed by Democratic Sens. Amy Klobuchar and Tina Smith; Democratic Reps. Angie Craig, Kelly Morrison, Betty McCollum and Ilhan Omar; and Republican Reps. Tom Emmer, Brad Finstad, Michelle Fischbach and Pete Stauber.
