Today, Congressman Henry Cuellar (D-TX28) released the following statement on the explosions at the end of the Boston Marathon:

“My thoughts and prayers are with the families of all the victims that were affected this afternoon by the explosions at the Boston Marathon. As a family man and father, my heart goes out to all of the victims and their families. I commend the volunteers, first responders, and everyone else who so bravely assisted during this horrific attack. This is an unfortunate reminder that we must continue to be vigilant with homeland security. While the cause of today's explosion is under investigation, we will ensure that justice is served and find those responsible. ”
