Sen Cesar Blanco pushes safety commission recommendations

Texas Sen. César Blanco and other members of the El Paso delegation in the Texas Legislature have emerged as some of the top advocates for gun safety laws over the past two years. When a gunman killed 23 people at an El Paso Walmart on Aug. 3, 2019, Blanco, D-El Paso, said he was permanently affected by it. The man accused of the shooting allegedly told police after being arrested that he came to kill Hispanics.  “We were the target of a man fueled by hate who drove across the state to kill Mexicans, to stop an invasion, according to him,” Blanco said. “Being on the ground in the aftermath of that day and several days afterwards, I think we ll never forget the immeasurable sadness, the frustration, the confusion that our community experienced that week.”
