Several of Schumer's N.Y. offices targeted with email bomb threats
U.S. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said his New York offices were the target of multiple bomb threats made by email, the Democratic lawmaker said Monday.
“This morning, I was informed by law enforcement entities throughout New York of multiple bomb threats that were made at my offices in Rochester, Binghamton, and Long Island with the email subject line ‘MAGA’ and from an email address alleging the ‘2020 election was rigged,’” Schumer said in a statement. “Local and federal law enforcement responded immediately and are conducting full security sweeps. Everyone is safe, and I am grateful for their quick and professional response to ensure these offices remain safe and secure for all New Yorkers.”
The state’s senior senator is the latest target of recent cases of political violence or threats against New York members of Congress. A man who was pardoned for crimes committed during the Jan. 6, 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol was charged in October with threatening to kill U.S. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries. In November, Republican Rep. Claudia Tenney had police respond to her private residence in Washington for a report of a broken window. Tenney’s district offices were also targeted with threats of violence and intimidation against staff earlier this year.
“As I have said many times, these kinds of violent threats have absolutely no place in our political system,” Schumer said. “No one—no public servant, no staff member, no constituent, no citizen—should ever be targeted for simply doing their job.”
