McCollum Statement on Terrorist Attack in St. Cloud

September 18, 2016

Congresswoman Betty McCollum (DFL-Minn.) released the following statement after the terrorist attack in St. Cloud:

"Last night's violence in St. Cloud can only be described as a terrorist attack. While federal, state and local authorities conduct a complete investigation, my best wishes and prayers go out to the victims, their families, and the officer who responded so courageously. As we condemn this attack, Minnesotans stand united in rejecting all forms of extremism and hate speech that lead to violence. Let's find the resolve to respond to this horrible act in ways that makes Minnesota stronger."
