Today we thank our military and reflect upon their service. We honor those veterans who have served our country and protected our freedoms. This day reminds us all that “freedom is not free” and that we must always remember the debt of gratitude we owe to those who serve and put America first.

We also honor and remember those soldiers who paid the ultimate price for our freedom. Texans’ and Americans’ hearts are heavy with sadness over the senseless killings that occurred at Fort Hood. We will never forget the brave men and women who lost their lives. Together we honor their service and salute their proud legacy as they are laid to rest.
