The reports and video of an ICE agent shooting an Austin resident is horrible. Across the country and in Texas, there is a pattern we have been witnessing- shootings, fatalities, and attacks by federal immigration authorities.

While we continue to monitor reports for more information, I am asking for a full and transparent investigation into this shooting, to include local and state investigators and law enforcement, and the ICE agent involved should remain in Texas pending the investigation. These attacks must STOP and our federal government must remember who they represent - the people!

The reported shooting in Austin came more than two months after an ICE officer fatally shot Lorenzo Salgado Araujo in Houston.

I spoke to Bexar County Election Administrator Michelle Carew about voters being put on the Voter Suspense list. She said there are over 20 different ways you could have been put on the Voter Suspense list and not be registered to vote.

Even if you think you are registered and nothing like your name or address has changed, everyone still needs to check their registration!

🗳️Today is National Voter Registration Day! Register to vote or check your registration so we are all ready to vote in November!

🔴Deadline to register or update registration in Texas is October 5th🔴

Today marks the 25th anniversary as we remember 9-11. We honor all the lives that were lost, and all those that saved countless lives, many while losing their own. Our thoughts are with their families and friends whose lives were forever changed, as they remember their loved ones.
