STATEMENT BY THE PRESIDENT
I was shocked and saddened to learn of the tragic shootings of three government inspectors, including two U.S. Department of Agriculture
employees, in California. The Federal government is working closely with local authorities on this matter. This grievous act was committed
against dedicated individuals who were working to ensure the public's health and safety. I want to join all Americans in extending our
thoughts and prayers to the victims and their families and co-workers.

Today, the U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of California filed a complaint charging an individual with the intentional killing of
