Yesterday our community was rocked by the kind of violence that has unfortunately now become common place. What should have been a day of families and friends gathered to celebrate resulted in terror and tragedy.
My thoughts are with the victims, their loved ones and the Highland Park and our entire Laker communities. We must keep working together through our laws and social justice organizations to reduce gun violence nationwide. We call upon our national leaders to take definitive and drastic action to curb the violence.
