The DuPage Democrats join together with our fellow Americans and those around the world who condemn political violence and the abhorrent assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump. We offer our sincere condolences to the victims of this crime which injured former President Trump and two others and killed another man.
As we see the news reports, we express our deep sadness that once again, a gunman in America is named before we know the names of the victims of another mass shooting. Americans will once again mourn for a moment, while the victims and their families have suffered a tragedy that will affect them forever. We strive for all participants in the political process to reject violence, including by supporting bi-partisan actions that reduce gun violence and improve access for mental health care.
Using our voices and our votes in the political process is a fundamental American value. It is never appropriate or in any way valued to engage in violent acts or promote violence. As we use our voices to advocate for our political views and against former President Trump's agenda, we know that it is vital for him and his supporters to exercise those same rights and peacefully advocate for their views. We wish former President Trump a continued solid recovery and continued good health.
Thank you to those who recognize this is a moment in America where we have an opportunity to reflect and improve. God Bless America. |
