Larson Statement on Dallas Shootings

Washington – Rep. John B. Larson (CT-01) issued the following statement on the shootings in Dallas that killed five officers and left several others wounded:

“Like many Americans, I was shocked and horrified by the ambush of police officers at a peaceful protest. It seems at times our nation barely begins to process the grief and trauma of one tragedy before another sends us reeling again. This week has already been filled with too many heartbreaks, too much violence. Our communities remain shaken and scarred by the loss of so many innocent lives from the events in Dallas to Baton Rouge and Minnesota. Violence is never the path forward. We must endeavor to end bigotry in all its forms and bring people together.”
