“I am heartbroken and horrified by the tragic loss of Johnson County native Sarah Milgrim and her partner Yaron Lischinsky in the antisemitic attack outside the Capital Jewish Museum last night. This type of hatred and bigotry must have no place in our communities. The victims’ families and the entire Jewish community are close to my heart during this extremely difficult time. We all must stand up against the troubling rise in antisemitic violence we're seeing in our country."
