Standard Summary
Comprehensive overview in 1-2 paragraphs

This is a Senate resolution condemning the June 14, 2025 attacks on Minnesota state lawmakers in Brooklyn Park and Champlin. It describes the violent incident, notes the shooter carried documents listing dozens of targeted lawmakers, and commends the bravery of local law enforcement who intervened. The resolution then expresses solemn honors for the victims—Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman and her husband, as well as Senator John Hoffman and his wife Yvette—while wishing them a full recovery, and it reiterates that acts of political violence have no place in the United States. Importantly, it calls on community leaders and all Americans to reject political violence and to pursue democracy through civil discourse and safety. As a Senate resolution, it is a non-binding expression of the Senate’s stance and does not itself create law or funding obligations.
