WASHINGTON, DC – Today, Congresswoman Blunt Rochester (DE-AL) released the following statement regarding Sunday night’s mass shooting in Las Vegas. “This morning, we awoke to the tragic news that over 50 innocent Americans were killed, with hundreds more wounded, injured, or missing,” said Congresswoman Blunt Rochester. “My thoughts and prayers are with the victims of last night’s shooting in Las Vegas, their families, and the first responders. Unfortunately, our moments of silence alone are not enough to prevent senseless acts of gun violence like this from happening. This is a national crisis that demands action, accountability, and leadership. From preventing gun violence in our neighborhoods to intervening to prevent a mass shooting, we must come together as a nation to enact real, commonsense gun control measures to ensure the safety of our communities.” ### |
