Legislative Update Friends and Neighbors, I was shocked to receive the news Saturday evening that there had been an attempted assassination of President Trump. My prayers are with President Trump, those injured and killed and killed, their families, and all those who had to experience this heinous act. It is unimaginable that in a nation built on the ideals of representative democracy a single person could try to take away the voice of millions of Americans who support and vote for President Trump. I pray we will not forget that our country is founded on the individual's right to peaceful assembly and free dissent. It is my hope that our nation will unite in the memory that we are all participants in this experiment in self-governance and that we must collectively strive for the prosperity of our great nation, regardless of our positions across any divide. |
