On June 14, Senator John Hoffman and his wife, Yvette, survived a targeted act of violence in their home that forever changed their lives. That same night, Minnesota lost Representative Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark, in a devastating attack. In this deeply personal keynote, Senator Hoffman reflects on survival, recovery, and how trauma reshaped his understanding of leadership, resilience, and public service. This is a story not only of endurance, but of renewed purpose, clarity, and commitment to community.
