"I look forward to leading a comprehensive strategy with my colleagues in Congress, the Executive Branch, and anyone willing to work for solutions so we can heal this community.”
Texas Insider Report: AUSTIN, Texas – Congressman Tony Gonzales (TX-23) released a statement after President Joe Biden visited the City of Uvalde over the Memorial Day Weekend, following the mass shooting at Robb Elementary School last week:
“Today, I welcomed the President of the United States to my district to grieve with the Uvalde community,” said Congressman Gonzales.
“While joining in prayer and mourning with the victims’ families, we had an open, honest conversation about the realities this community is facing and will continue to face if significant investments are not made in Texas.
"Improving access to in-patient behavioral and mental healthcare, strengthening inter-agency communication and response time, and expanding rural broadband for telehealth are a few of the solutions I proposed today. I look forward to leading a comprehensive strategy with my colleagues in Congress, the Executive Branch, and anyone willing to work for solutions, so we can heal this community and prevent another senseless tragedy.”
Congressman Gonzales joined President Biden for a visit to Robb Elementary School, for mass at Sacred Heart Catholic Church, and for meetings with the area's 1st Responders.
