April 10, 2023

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, U.S. Congresswoman Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick released the following statement on the recent mass shooting in Louisville, Kentucky.

My heart aches for Louisville after today’s horrific mass shooting downtown,” said Congresswoman Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick. “Behind the latest headlines from Kentucky are fathers and mothers, sons and daughters, brothers and sisters, whose lives will never be the same again.

It is unacceptable that our nation continues to allow this senseless violence to occur. Congress must do everything in its power to end this worsening epidemic. Thoughts and prayers alone will not provide the remedy our communities desperately need.”
