Biden Visits Lewiston After Mass Shooting
November 3, 2023
Jill and I are here, though, on behalf of the American people, to grieve with you and to make sure you know that you’re not alone. Eighteen precious souls stolen, 13 wounded. Children, grandchildren. Spouses, siblings. Parents, grandparents. Bowling coaches, union workers, beloved members of advocates and friends of Lewiston’s deaf and hard of hearing community. This is about common sense, reasonable and responsible measures to protect our children, our families, our communities. Because regardless of our politics, this is about protecting our freedom to go to a bowling alley, a restaurant, a school, a church without being shot and killed.
