One year ago, an act of political violence claimed the lives of Minnesota Rep. Melissa Hortman, her husband, Mark, and their dog, Gilbert, in their home. That same day, Minnesota Sen. John Hoffman and his wife, Yvette, were also shot multiple times and survived their injuries.

One year ago today, Minnesota Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark, and their dog Gilbert were senselessly murdered in an act of political violence.

In their memory, we need to recommit ourselves to the values they exemplified: building a kinder, more just, and loving world.
