WASHINGTON – Congresswoman Lauren Underwood (IL-14) today released the following statement on the shooting that took place in Aurora, Illinois.

"Yesterday marked the anniversary of the shooting at Northern Illinois University, and today, just over 11 years later we are shocked and saddened yet again by yet another act of gun violence.
