NEW YORK, NY – City Comptroller John C. Liu stated the following on the attack yesterday at a Sikh temple in Wisconsin:

“I join with all New Yorkers in sending my thoughts and prayers to the families and friends of those who have been devastated by the attack in the Sikh community of Milwaukee this past weekend. Today, people of all faiths need to come together to show unified opposition to gun violence, especially that motivated by racial, ethnic, and religious hatred. Our thanks go to the New York City Police Department for increasing its presence in the Sikh communities around NYC to ensure their safety.”
