Congressman Al Green Attends Memorial Service for Fallen Dallas Peace Officers

(Dallas, Texas)—On Tuesday, July 12, 2016, Congressman Al Green (TX-9) traveled to Dallas, Texas to attend the memorial service for the five Dallas peace officers killed on July 7, 2016. Congressman Al Green joined President Obama as well as other elected officials and dignitaries to honor the fallen officers.

“I journeyed to Dallas, Texas to stand in unity with President Obama, peace officers, as well as others of good will to honor our fallen officers and condemn the heinous, terroristic hate crime committed against them,” Congressman Al Green said. “This tragedy should remind us that violence does not arrest itself. People of good will must act to end hateful violence or hateful violence will be our end. All of good will should show support for those who make the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty.”
