The LDS Church unequivocally condemns “violence and lawless behavior, including the recent violence in Washington, D.C., and any suggestion of further violence,” the faith’s senior leaders said Friday.
As Americans “look ahead to” Wednesday’s inauguration of Joe Biden as the 46th U.S. president, the governing First Presidency and Quorum of the Twelve Apostles in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints urged members “to honor democratic institutions and processes, and to obey, honor, and sustain the law.”
While the Utah-based faith remains “neutral in matters of party politics, we remind our members whatever their individual political views to be united in our commitment to the Savior, Jesus Christ, and his teachings,” these top officials wrote. “As his followers, we should treat one another and all of God’s children with respect, dignity and love.”

All eyes centered on Capitol Hill Wednesday, a week after a mob stormed the Capitol building, as the House of Representatives began proceedings to discuss the impeachment of sitting President Donald Trump.
Talks of impeachment follow the House’s failed call-to-arms asking Vice President Michael Pence to invoke the 25th Amendment of the United States Constitution, which would allow him and the president’s cabinet to wrestle temporary control of the executive branch from the president.
With Pence refusing the call and the House focused more on formal
impeachment inquiries, local lawyers and professors are reflecting on the constitutionality and implications of an impeachment, as well as why the 25th Amendment did not stick.
