September 24, 2025 Press Release WASHINGTON, DC –  Congressman Veasey (TX-33), Congresswoman Crockett (TX-30), Congresswoman Johnson (TX-32), Congresswoman Fletcher (TX-07), Congresswoman Escobar (TX-16), Congressman Doggett (TX-37), Congressman  Casar (TX-35), Congressman Gonzalez (TX-34), Congresswoman Garcia (TX-29), and Congressman Joaquin Castro (TX-20) released the following statement on the shooting at an ICE processing facility in Dallas, TX: “We are horrified at the shooting that has taken place at the ICE processing facility in Dallas and our prayers are with the victims and the first responders. We unequivocally condemn all forms of violence and urge everyone to refrain from rhetoric that fans the flames—from all sides. “We do not know every fact, but we know that there are two dead victims and one seriously injured. No one — those in uniform, civilians, or immigrants — should be subject to the senseless violence we are seeing across our nation. “The Trump Administration and the Governor must stop stoking the flames of division, hate, and anger to exploit people's fears for political gain. As more details of the shooting emerge, we urge everyone to meet this moment with empathy and not give into the lies and hateful rhetoric we are already seeing.” Issues : Immigration Voting Rights Minority Issues
