“Today, I rise in solidarity with south Jersey's Sikh community. This week marks the 40th anniversary of a brutal attack by the Indian Army on the Golden Temple, the holiest shrine of Sikhism in which thousands of innocent Sikh pilgrims were killed. Since this senseless violence, many Sikhs have sought refuge in the United States, including south Jersey. They built their lives here, made countless contributions to the educational, economic, religious, and cultural richness of our region. They also keep the names and memories of those who were killed in 1984 alive. Today, I join with the Sikh community in remembering those lost in this horrific attack and to honor those who carry on their legacy today. ____________________”
