Pocan Condemns Shooting at Abundant Life Christian School in Madison
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, U.S. Representative Mark Pocan (WI-02) released the following statement following the shooting at Abundant Life Christian School in Madison:
“My heart goes out to the victims of the Abundant Life Christian School shooting, their loved ones, and our entire community. I would also like to express my profound gratitude to our local law enforcement and first responders who selflessly put themselves in harm’s way to protect others. Their bravery and dedication do not go unnoticed.”
“‘Thoughts and prayers’ offer comfort to the families and communities affected but have not changed our unique reality as Americans. It’s time for action. I am a co-sponsor of several gun violence prevention and youth mental health bills that will help prevent future tragedies like this. It’s time for my Republican colleagues to grow a backbone and put our children above the gun lobby by passing commonsense gun safety laws that will save countless lives.”
