"The murder of Circuit Court Judge Andrew Wilkinson outside his home in Hagerstown, Maryland is a tragedy. Our sheriffs, police and marshals must have the resources to do their jobs of guarding the linchpins of our legal system, judges. It is critical we protect these honorable civil servants so they can remain impartial and faithful to the rule of law. Judge Wilkinson will be sorely missed by the community and the judicial system. My condolences go out to his family, friends, and the legal community of Maryland,” said Congressman Glenn Ivey.

As our government nears an avoidable shutdown, and we witness a lack of leadership on the Republican side to break this impasse, let us remember and honor the life of Senator Dianne Feinstein: a true stateswoman, dedicated public servant, and bipartisan pragmatist.

Senator Feinstein’s career in politics spanned decades, positively impacting the state of California and our nation as a whole. Her commitment to public service was unwavering, and her zeal for representing the people of California was apparent in everything she did.
