On the recordJuly 23, 2012
My home State of Colorado had a tragedy over the weekend, a mass murder that will forever remain on the minds of all Coloradans and all Americans. The tragedy extends beyond those who were killed and those who were injured to our friends, our neighbors, everybody impacted by this senseless act of terror in my home State. I would like to thank President Obama for joining the families impacted in mourning. I would like to thank all of those in Colorado and across the country who have sent their thoughts, their care, their resources to all of us in Colorado in a time of need. This also should serve as an occasion for all of us to acknowledge what is special and important in our lives, to celebrate every day we have on this planet, the health of our family, our own health and safety, and hope and pray to God that the tragedy that impacted Colorado will not happen again in Colorado or anywhere else. ____________________
