Washington, DC - U.S. Senator Bob Casey (D-PA) released a statement following the attack in Charlottesville:

"Today our nation mourns for Heather Heyer, who was murdered in yesterday’s domestic terror attack in Charlottesville, and her family. I’m also praying for the law enforcement officers who lost their lives as well, Pilot Lt. H. Jay Cullen and Trooper-Pilot Berke M.M. Bates. The terrorist who committed yesterday’s violent act must be held fully accountable. All public officials have an obligation to clearly state that hateful, racist, white nationalist groups were responsible for yesterday’s terrorism. Our nation should never tolerate their racism or their violent acts."
