Troy Carter Statement on Minnesota Shootings Targeting Lawmakers | 2025-06-14 | 2025 | 2025-06 | Democrat | House | LA | Troy A. Carter | C001125 | troycarter.house.gov | troycarter | https://troycarter.house.gov/media/press-releases | scraper | WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Congressman Troy A. Carter, Sr. (D-LA) issued the following statement” “The targeted shootings at the homes of Minnesota Senator Hoffman, Speaker Emerita Hortman, and their spouses are abhorrent acts of political violence — and an attack on the very core of our democracy. “We must say it plainly: there is no place for violence — ever — in American politics. “Disagreements are part of our democratic process. But resorting to threats, intimidation, or violence to settle political or ideological differences is both dangerous and fundamentally un-American. These acts are designed to instill fear, suppress voices, and undermine the institutions we are sworn to uphold. “I stand with my colleagues in Minnesota and offer prayers for the victims, their families, and all who have been impacted. And I call on every leader — regardless of party — to unequivocally denounce this escalating climate of political violence. “Let us remain vigilant, protect one another, and recommit ourselves to the democratic principles that unite us — even when we disagree. “Violence cannot, and will not, define who we are as a nation.” ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-07T01:08:28Z |
