Hakeem Jeffries on Disagreeing Peacefully Amid WHCD Shooting: To Make Sure That We Respect the Opposition

‘Whatever your ideological perspective is, we all love America’
By Grabien Staff

TRANSCRIPT:

JEFFRIES: “Well, I think it’s going to be important for all of us, whether that’s the president, the cabinet, members of Congress, people in the Senate, governors, state and local elected officials all across the country, to do the best that we can to set the most appropriate example — again, to disagree with each other strongly when necessary, to battle it out in the public sphere of ideas, but to make sure that we respect the opposition in terms of those disagreements that are anchored in principle, and also to make clear that everybody, whatever your ideological perspective is, we all love America, and we all want to make sure that this country is the best that it can possibly be, particularly as we approach the 250th birthday on July 4th, and work hard together to make the next 250 years even better than the first.”
