Congressman Chris Murphy released the following statement in response to the attack and killing of American diplomats in Libya:
I condemn in the strongest terms the attack on American diplomats in Benghazi, which killed the United States Ambassador to Libya, J. Christopher Stevens, and three staff members. Ambassador Stevens, a former Peace Corps volunteer, was dedicated to helping the Libyan people build a better, more democratic future. Attacks on our diplomats cannot be tolerated and those responsible should immediately be brought to justice.
