00:00My good friend and colleague, Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark, were shot and killed early this morning in what appears to be a politically motivated assassination.
00:09Our state lost a great leader, and I lost a dearest of friends.
00:14Speaker Hortman was someone who served the people of Minnesota with grace, compassion, humor, and a sense of service.
00:22She was a formidable public servant, a fixture and a giant in Minnesota.
00:27She woke up every day determined to make this state a better place.
00:33She is irreplaceable, and we've been missed by so many.
00:38Minnesota's thoughts and prayers are with her family, her loved ones, her children, and her parents.
00:44My prayers also go out to State Senator John Hortman and his wife Yvette, who were each shot multiple times.
