Houston, TX – Today, Congresswoman Sylvia R. Garcia (D-TX-29) released the following statement on the one-year anniversary of the horrific October 7th attacks in Israel:

“A year ago today, Israel was the target of a heinous terrorist attack carried out by Hamas—the deadliest day for the Jewish people since the Holocaust. Today, I stand with Israel as it marks this somber moment.
