Congressman Braley Statement on Shooting in Arizona

By Alex Krasov

Washington, DC - Today, Congressman Bruce Braley (IA-01) released the following statement on the shooting in Tucson, Arizona:

"While we still don`t have all the details, Carolyn and I are praying for Gabby. Our thoughts go out to her husband Mark, her family, her staff and all who know and love her. And I add my deepest condolences to the families of the other victims of this morning's tragic, senseless shooting

I also should note that Gabby's brother, Alex Giffords, was a placekicker for the Iowa State football team. She gave me a print of Beardshear Hall at Iowa State that I have in my office, which she got from her brother."
