Washington, DC,
January 12, 2011
Today, U.S. Rep. Rick Larsen (WA-02) will deliver the following statement on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives to honor Representative Giffords and remember the victims of the tragic shooting in Arizona. “What does the Lord require? Do justice, love mercy, and walk humbly with God. “These words from the prophet Micah are as true today as they were when first spoken. “They provide a guidance to how we in Congress can lead by example for everyone in this country as we try to come to terms with the tragedy in Arizona. “We can work with each other with justice, mercy and humility in our hearts. “When Micah said these words, they were guidance. Today, they are a plea. I know we can heed these words. “I ask that we keep all the victims of this tragedy in our prayers.” ###
