JEFFERSON, La.— Today, House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.) released the following statement after a shooting at a rally for President Trump in Pennsylvania:
“I am praying for President Trump and all of those hurt at today’s rally. We owe our gratitude to the swift action of brave law enforcement heroes and first responders who acted quickly.
