Rep. Susie Lee Statement on Shooting of Los Angeles Sheriff’s Deputies

Washington, D.C. - U.S. Rep. Susie Lee (Nev.-03) released the following statement in response to the shooting of two Los Angeles Sheriff's deputies:

"Two officers donned their uniforms Saturday to serve their community and were ambushed. They are now fighting for their lives. This act of violence against them is unspeakable, and it is clearly not how we build a more just community and country. My heart goes out to their families and loved ones. At the same time, those responsible must be held accountable for this atrocious act.

"We have to come together as a community to turn down the temperature and address the hatred and division in our country."
