Washington, D.C. – U.S. Senator Jim Risch (R-ID) issued the following statement regarding Charlottesville, Virginia:

--

"The hateful acts of racism we witnessed in Charlottesville this weekend are reprehensible and I condemn them in the strongest terms. White supremacy - and every other form of prejudice - does not represent our American values. Vicki joins me in praying for the families of those who lost their lives and for those who were injured."
