Johnson: Evers Should Reconsider Refusal of Federal Assistance for Kenosha

Statement

Date: Aug. 26, 2020
Location: Washington, DC

It is heartbreaking that the violence in Kenosha has now escalated to include the loss of human life. Although it will not guarantee peace, Governor Evers should reconsider his refusal to accept President Trump's offer to send more personnel to restore order.

"It is now three days since Jacob Blake was shot. I have repeatedly urged peace, and I renew that call today. Anarchy and chaos will not advance justice, and must be stopped."
