On this day of prayer, Laura and I are holding up our fellow Texans who are hurting.

Violence and vitriol must be purged from the public square. Members of other political parties are not our enemies; they are our fellow citizens.

We are heartbroken by the loss of life and the agony so many are feeling.

Those who have lost their precious children are facing a grief no parents should ever know.
