PHOENIX — As the nation processes the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump, one group in Phoenix is looking for ways to tone down the tension we have seen in politics these last few years.Sunday's latest after attempted assassination of Donald Trump "I was completely shocked by the images I saw and how close we were to this being a complete game changer in human history,” said Jane Andersen, the protecting democracy specialist at Mormon Women for Ethical Government.
"While the Pennsylvania incident does not directly impact our current election security here in Maricopa County, MCSO is always on high alert and ready to protect our staff and community,” Skinner posted on X."Please rest assured our security plans are robust and we actively watch & evaluate every potential threat."
Andersen is part of a larger statewide initiative that trains community leaders on how to stem political violence. It is made up of faith leaders, educators and activists from all sides of the political aisle. Despite what happened, Andersen believes incidents like this are not going to be the norm. The best way forward she says is to talk to people you disagree with, drawing on our shared identities as Arizonans and as Americans. She says for those who love peace, it is time to take a stand.
