Milwaukee County Executive Statement on the Deaths and Shootings of the Minnesota Lawmakers

MILWAUKEE - Milwaukee County Executive David Crowley issued the following statement regarding the deaths and shootings of the Minnesota lawmakers.

"Political violence anywhere is a threat to everyone. Period. The hateful rhetoric and political division in this nation must end. We cannot allow this extremism to go unchecked. Justice must be served immediately. We need to come together and denounce horrific acts of violence like this before they continue to take more innocent lives and harm our communities. My deepest condolences go out to the Minnesota lawmakers’ loved ones, friends, and colleagues."
