Senior leaders of companies across America have made strong statements condemning what occurred on Wednesday at the Capitol. CoAspire’s CEO Doug Denneny joins them and in the strongest words possible fully supports the arrest, prosecution and maximum sentences and fines for all of those involved.
Doug worked in the Senate, worked in legislative affairs for the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and remembers when, as an active duty naval officer, being allowed on the floor of the Senate was a big deal and required special permission (see above).
Wednesday’s appalling attack on our Capitol and Congress will never be forgiven or forgotten. As Doug says, “Congress is an institution I hold dearly. It is composed of members and thousands of staffers and thousands of residents of DC, Maryland and Virginia who support and protect them. Never forget that they are people like you and me: they are fathers, mothers, husbands, wives, sons and daughters. We know many of them well and we care about them deeply.” #neverforget
