We are horrified by the mass shootings in El Paso and Dayton. Our deepest condolences go out to the families of the victims, and we wish for a speedy recovery for all those who were injured.
While the investigation in Dayton is ongoing, we are aware that the murders in El Paso are being treated as a case of white supremacist terrorism. In the wake of Pittsburgh, Christchurch, and Poway, this is yet another chilling reminder of our collective responsibility to stop this hateful ideology from poisoning more minds and claiming more victims.
