Murphy Statement on Violent Riots in Los Angeles

June 9, 2025 Press Release Washington, D.C. — Congressman Greg Murphy, M.D., issued the following statement in response to the violent riots in Los Angeles, California: "Democratic leadership created the anarchy and chaos we are currently witnessing in Los Angeles, and are enabling it in an act of defiance of President Trump’s efforts to restore community safety and enforce our country’s immigration laws," said Congressman Greg Murphy, M.D. " Politics must never come at the expense of public safety. The American people voted overwhelmingly for security, not illegal sanctuary." "Destruction of public and private property, as well as attacks on law enforcement officers and equipment has no place in America. Not now, not ever, and certainly not by individuals waving a foreign nation’s flag."
