Gonzales, who represents District 23, which spans from San Antonio along the border to El Paso, voted last year in favor of gun control stemming from the aftermath of the Robb Elementary School shooting.
“I represent Uvalde. It's only been 10 months. Everybody forgets about Uvalde. If the vote was today on the Safer Communities Act, I would vote twice on it if I could. The reality is the Safer Communities Act would have prevented the Uvalde shooting,” Gonzales told TPR earlier in the week.The censure resolution said Gonzales' views violate core principles of the state GOP.
