Today, Rep. Lois Frankel (FL-21) issued the following statement.

“Thank you to everyone who has reached out. I am safe, and my staff are safe,” said Rep. Frankel. “This is not who we are as a nation. What happened at the U.S. Capitol today was a tragic and un-American attack on our democracy, and a direct consequence of a President who has encouraged violence and undermined our election system by lying to the American public. The disgraceful events of today do not change the fact that Joe Biden and Kamala Harris won the 2020 election and will be sworn in as President and Vice President. Democracy will prevail.”
