VAN BUREN TOWNSHIP, Mich., July 13, 2024 — In response to the recent violent incident at a rally held with Former President Donald J. Trump, state Rep. Reggie Miller (D-Van Buren Township) issued the following statement:

“Violence in American politics is never acceptable. Violence does not lead to the solutions that move our country forward. Every political candidate should be safe to campaign for office, and citizens should know they can support candidates without fearing for their safety at political events. My heartfelt thanks to law enforcement for their swift action to keep people safe. We must all unite against such acts of violence and work together to create a country where political discourse can thrive without fear of retribution. I am relieved to hear Former President Trump is safe.”
