“Political violence has no place in the United States, lawmakers cutting across party lines asserted, as U.S. President Donald Trump and other top White House officials were evacuated unharmed from a hotel following a shooting incident.”
SINGLE SOURCE
The web search results confirm that Donald Trump and top officials were evacuated from the Washington Hilton hotel following shots fired at the Correspondents' Dinner. However, none of the provided evidence sources mention lawmakers cutting across party lines asserting that political violence has no place in the United States. The assertion about lawmakers' statements is not supported by the evidence.

“Addressing a press conference hours after he and top leaders were rushed out of the White House Correspondents Dinner at the Washington Hilton hotel, Mr. Trump gave a call for national unity and said Americans must resolve differences despite rising political tensions and violence.”
CORROBORATED
One web search result explicitly states that Trump called for national unity, urging Republicans, Democrats, and independents to 'resolve our differences peacefully' following the dinner. Another web search result confirms the context of the evacuation from the Correspondents' Dinner. While the evidence confirms the event and the call for unity, the specific details of the call are corroborated by the web search results regarding the aftermath of the event.
