RENO, NV – U.S. Senator Jacky Rosen (D-NV) released the following statement on the investigation into the failed assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania on Saturday. Over the weekend, she issued an initial statement and called for a Senate committee investigation and hearing.
“I’ve been keeping former President Trump and his family in my thoughts, as well as the loved ones of Corey Comperatore and all those injured during this despicable act of political violence. There’s no place in our nation for such a heinous and evil attack, and I condemn it wholeheartedly,” said Senator Rosen. “As a member of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, I’m glad the committee has agreed to our bipartisan calls to hold a hearing and fully investigate this incident. As we move forward, we need to come together as Americans, reject baseless conspiracy theories on both sides, and focus on a fact-based effort to get all available information and ensure accountability so that this never happens again.”
