U.S. Congresswoman Debbie Dingell (MI-12) released the following statement after a gunman opened fire at a practice for the Congressional baseball game.

“I am stunned and horrified by today’s shooting at a baseball practice for one of the few bipartisan events left on Capitol Hill where people come together as a community in the annual Congressional baseball game between Republicans and Democrats. We are praying for all of them – my Congressional colleagues, their staffs, the Capitol Police, their families and everyone affected. Let us come together today. We need to lose this divisiveness, this constant disagreement, animosity and hostility between too many people. We need to listen, share, respect, and accept each other. Today we are all united as Americans against this unspeakable evil – and we are united as colleagues who want to serve our communities and make them better and stronger for the people we represent.”
