Stabbing attempt target RepLeeZeldin calls for stronger New York crime-fighting measures
Zeldin, a House member who has represented a Long Island-based district since 2015, was uninjured in Thursday's attack near Rochester, New York.
The congressman noted there have been multiple instances of people being charged, released, and committing offenses again shortly after. He pointed to a recent instance of a gunman who shot and killed a Goldman Sachs employee being let go and then killing someone on the subway.“I believe that when repealing cashless bail, there should also be a certain minimum set. We're certain cases, certain suspects and defendants, have to remain behind bars.
Politicians on both sides of the aisle have condemned Zeldin’s attacker, with President Joe Biden releasing a statement on the matter Friday.
