Hoffman tells lawmakers they can’t let ‘evil of the night win’ as peers honor Melissa Hortman
[[link removed]]
The political violence that shook Minnesota's Legislature was front and center at a national conference of lawmakers Monday, where a state senator shot at his home in June urged lawmakers to dial back rhetoric that can fuel violence.
Democratic state Sen. John Hoffman, who is recovering from multiple gunshot wounds, spoke via video to the National Conference of State Legislatures conference in Boston. More than 50 lawmakers and staff from Minnesota were in attendance.
“What happened in Minnesota on June 14 was awful and tragic and will impact me and my family forever,” Hoffman said. “But as a Minnesotan and as an American, I do know this, we can’t let the evil of the night win and we must redouble our efforts and reclaim the reason we are all public servants.”
