Our hearts are broken with more senseless tragedy. Our country has experienced three mass shootings within one week—Gilroy, El Paso, and Dayton.

If you would like to support the victims, join me in donating to the victims' funds.

Blood is needed to help those who are injured. Consider giving blood at the American Red Cross Eastern Pennsylvania Region West Chester Donation Center.
