Lautenberg Press Office (202) 224-3224
Wednesday, June 10, 2009

    WASHINGTON, DC - Senator Frank R. Lautenberg (D-NJ), a member of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum Council, today issued the following statement on today’s shooting and the death of Officer Stephen Tyrone Johns:
   
    “We are horrified by what happened in Washington today.  It is especially shocking that this attack took place at a museum designed to prevent violence and remind us of the dangers of hatred and bigotry.  Our thoughts and prayers are with the security officer’s family, the staff of the museum and the museum visitors who were there today.”
