Castro shot and wounded Julio Sosa-Celis in Minneapolis during 'Operation Metro Surge' after firing through a closed door.

Former U.S. Rep. Tony Gonzales's Resignation Leaves Texas's 23rd Congressional District Vacant, Drawing Criticism from Local Leaders

Texas's 23rd Congressional District has been without a representative since former U.S. Rep. Tony Gonzales resigned on April 14. This vacancy has become a point of contention, particularly highlighted by Democratic gubernatorial nominee Gina Hinojosa and Presidio Mayor John Ferguson. Hinojosa, in her criticism of Governor Greg Abbott, stated that residents in the Big Bend region feel disconnected from government decision-making due lacking a voice in Congress due to the absence of a special election to fill the vacancy. The district, which encompasses a significant portion of the Big Bend region, is currently unrepresented, leading to concerns among its constituents regarding their ability to engage with federal decision-making processes.
