Cotton Statement Condemning the Antisemitic Terrorist Attack in Washington, DC

Washington, D.C. — Senator Tom Cotton (R-Arkansas) today released the following statement after the murder of two Israeli embassy employees outside of the Capital Jewish Museum:

 “On behalf of Arkansans, I extend deepest condolences for the tragic loss of Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Lynn Milgrim to their families and our Israeli friends. I condemn these antisemitic murders—and the wave of depraved antisemitic incitement that contributed to this atrocity. This terrorist attack mere blocks from the Capitol is what they mean when they chant ‘globalize the intifada.’ We must not only get justice for these murders, but also oppose—bravely, strongly, and consistently—antisemitism in all its forms.”
