Washington, D.C. – Today, House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries released the following statement about recent attacks against Tesla: 

Political violence in any form has no place in our democracy.  The recent violent attacks against automobile dealerships and charging stations are not acceptable and any perpetrator should be held accountable under the law. 

There are legitimate ways in a civilized society to express strong disagreement with far right extremists who are trying to dismantle the American way of life. Violence is never acceptable.
