Concord, N.H. — Congresswoman Maggie Goodlander (NH-02) released the following statement today after a series of disturbing social media posts calling for political assassinations.

“I condemn, with every fiber of my being, the threats of and calls for murder from the Libertarian Party of New Hampshire. Every freedom-loving American — Independents, Republicans, Democrats, and, yes, Libertarians — must do the same.

“Calling for the killing of fellow Americans because you disagree is not liberty. It is absolutely anti-American. You can disagree with someone as deeply as humanly possible. But in the United States of America you cannot call for their killing and go unpunished.

“I am calling on the New Hampshire Attorney General and federal law enforcement to fully investigate these threats and hold anyone who broke the law accountable. Threats of murder like this have no place in New Hampshire or anywhere in America. They must stop. Now.”
