CT Senate GOP Condemns Racist Texts Sent To CT Students
November 12, 2024(Bloomfield Daily Voice)
Authorities in Bloomfield in Hartford County posted a statement on Facebook saying the school system condemns “any and all forms of racism, prejudice, or hate within our community.”
Racist language, behavior, and rhetoric have no place in Bloomfield, and we are committed to ensuring that every member of our community feels safe, valued, and respected. In conjunction with the Bloomfield Police Department, we are actively responding to these incidents and will work with local, state, and federal authorities to assist in their investigation.
The Connecticut Senate Republican Caucus called the texts “abhorrent” and demanded answers and a transparent investigation.
“It’s abhorrent,” the statement said. “Connecticut Senate Republicans condemn it in the strongest of terms. But what is state government doing about it? How are we pursuing the hate mongers? Are we? Is the Connecticut State Police working with the FBI to hold people accountable? Are meetings being held with local law enforcement? We need more information — and more transparency — from state government. We universally condemn the hate. But what, exactly, is being done about it?”
