Put simply, an attack on free speech is an attack on all Americans.  

My thoughts and prayers are with the Garland community and all who were affected by the horrific attack there this week.  I'm incredibly grateful that law enforcement and all agencies involved ensured a bad situation did not become much worse.

This is a sad reminder that we live in a dangerous world, and I promise to continue to strengthen our national security and do everything possible to keep Texas safe as your representative in Washington.  In the meantime, I've spoken with Mayor Douglas Athas and Governor Greg Abbott and have requested an intelligence briefing on the attack and continued threats.

Thank you to all who keep us safe.
