Feb. 3: Congressional Record publishes “HONORING ANTHONY SALAS.....” in the House of Representatives section

Politics 13 edited

Tony Gonzales was mentioned in HONORING ANTHONY SALAS..... on page H923 covering the 2nd Session of the 117th Congress published on Feb. 3 in the Congressional Record.

The publication is reproduced in full below:

HONORING ANTHONY SALAS

(Mr. GONZALES of Texas asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute.)

Mr. GONZALES of Texas. Madam Speaker, I rise today in memory of El Paso native Special Agent Anthony Salas.

Anthony was with the DPS for 9 years. Prior to that, Anthony served in the Marines. He was a true patriot.

Anthony sadly passed away on January 22. He is survived by his wife, Lizzett, and his three children: Alessandra, Isabella, and Luke.

Anthony was a special operations group operator involved in a traffic crash during the arrest of six migrants in Eagle Pass. Maverick County sadly has become the epicenter of the border crisis.

Agents put their lives on the line every single day. My heart goes out to his family, and America is grateful for his service.
