Congresswoman Crockett's Statement on Shooting at Wilmer-Hutchins High School

"I am heartbroken to learn of yet another shooting at Wilmer-Hutchins High School-nearly one year after the last.

My prayers are with the students, teachers, and families who are once again forced to live through this nightmare. No child should fear for their life at school. No teacher should have to barricade a classroom door. Let me be clear: this is not normal. This is not acceptable. Guns do not belong in our schools. Every student deserves to learn in a safe environment.

I want to thank our law enforcement officers and first responders for their swift response to today's incident.

My office is in close contact with the Dallas Independent School District as we continue to monitor the situation and ensure students, staff, and families receive the support they need."
