Senator Erin Murphy
BOSTON (KFGO/MNN) – An emotional plea from Senate Majority Leader Erin Murphy as she addressed state lawmakers from across the country at a national conference in Boston. Murphy paid tribute to Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman.
“We can’t lose faith in each other. We can’t lose faith in America. As Melissa taught us, failure is not an option.”
Murphy urged other state leaders to increase their efforts to end conspiracy theories and dehumanizing narratives that fuel radicals and violence. She said she witnessed that following the assassination of Melissa Hortman.
Murphy was joined by Republican House Speaker Lisa Demuth in Boston. There was also a video from Senator John Hoffman, still recovering from the assassination attempt on his life.
