Statement from All Living Fmr. PA Governors on Ensuring First Family’s Safety | Commonwealth of Pennsylvania

Harrisburg, PA - Today, all living former Pennsylvania Governors - former Governor Tom Wolf, former Governor Tom Corbett, former Governor Ed Rendell, former Governor Mark Schweiker, andformer Governor Tom Ridge - released the following statement about prioritizing the First Family's safety and ensuring that issue is never politicized:

"As former Governors of Pennsylvania, we have come together several times to speak on issues of mutual interest. This weekend, the President faced yet another assassination attempt. Last year, Governor Shapiro and his family faced an unspeakable attack while they were sleeping in the Governor's Residence. Combatting political violence and keeping our elected officials safe should always be nonpartisan and a priority. For us, the attack on Pennsylvania's First Family was particularly upsetting. In the aftermath of that attack we ask the state's current leaders and legislators to make the safety and security of the Governor and his family a priority."
