I am sickened & heartbroken over the cowardly act of violence that occurred in Midland today. Hatred & senseless violence will not be tolerated in Texas & I’m deeply saddened at the loss of so many innocent lives.
... My heart goes out to the victims & their families & I want to express my deepest condolences. Thoughts and prayers also extend to the brave first responders & the men and women in law enforcement who helped get the situation under control.
