TEXAS, August 27 - August 27, 2025 | Austin, Texas
Governor Greg Abbott today directed all state government buildings to lower the United States and Texas flags to half-staff, in accordance with President Donald J. Trump's proclamation recognizing the victims of the Annunciation Catholic School shooting in Minneapolis.
"Today’s attack at a Catholic school in Minnesota is horrific and heartbreaking," said Governor Abbott. "Cecilia and I are lifting up in prayer the families who lost innocent children, those injured, and the entire community as they face this tragedy.
