Representative Kevin Hern (OK-01) issued a statement following the shooting incident at President Donald Trump’s rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.

“I am grateful for the heroic acts of law enforcement who rushed to ensure President Trump’s safety,” said Rep. Hern. “It is truly a miracle that the bullet only grazed President Trump’s ear. Tammy and I are keeping him, as well as the loved ones of the individual killed and the two people who were gravely injured, in our prayers. This was a reckless assassination attempt that put thousands of people in danger. Political violence of any kind should be universally condemned in the strongest of terms. I ask my fellow Oklahomans to join me in lifting our nation up in prayer.”
