On the second anniversary of the October 7th attacks on Israel, Congressman August Pfluger (TX-11) issued a statement addressing the events and their aftermath. He described the attack as an unprovoked assault by Hamas, resulting in the deaths of civilians and acts of public violence.
“Two years ago today, Hamas launched a barbaric and unprovoked assault on Israel, slaughtering innocent men, women, and children, then parading their victims’ bodies through the streets in celebration. This evil cannot stand, and antisemitism must be outright condemned and confronted. Israel has every right to defend itself, and I’m grateful President Trump has taken decisive action to restore peace, return the hostages, and end Hamas’s reign of terror through an emerging ceasefire and peace deal. I remain committed to supporting President Trump’s work to ensure an atrocity like October 7, 2023, never happens again,” said Pfluger.
August Pfluger has represented Texas’s 11th District in the U.S. Congress since 2021, succeeding Mike Conaway. In the 2020 general election, he won against Jon Mark Hogg with nearly 80% of the vote.
