WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Sen. Jim Inhofe (R-Okla.), a senior member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, made the following statement regarding today’s deadly shooting at Fort Hood:

“My prayers go out to the military members and their families at Fort Hood. Just days before this nation remembers our veterans, the devastating attacks that killed at least 12 and wounded at least 31 is a senseless tragedy. Our men and women in uniform sacrifice so much every day on the front lines around the world. Having an attack like this at home is deplorable and heartbreaking.”
