Senator Harris Dodd, with unanimous consent, asked that the Senate adjourn in honor of the individuals who lost their lives to violence in Milwaukee in the last few weeks. 67 lives have been taken in Milwaukee since January of this year. 12 of those lives were taken since she last stood before us on the Senate floor. Nearly every day in her district, a person is shot or injured as a result of violence. For the children of her district, there is nothing unusual about hearing the sound of gunshots in their neighborhood. It is not shocking to them when they find out that their friend’s older brother was shot a few streets down or when they hear that another young man was killed who used to go to their school. We have to work to protect these children. We have to work to do to ensure that they do not grow up in a community where the sound of gunshots is a regular occurrence. Senator Harris Dodd stood today to challenge the State Senate again to take a stand against violence. She challenges everyone to work with her to reduce violence and build safer communities for our children.
