Giffords is no longer in public office but still a public servant . Here she is in Texas visiting with victims and health care workers who dealt with the shooting.
EL PASO, Texas - Former Arizona congresswoman and shooting survivor Gabby Giffords visited El Paso over a two-day period, visiting the last mass shooting patient still hospitalized at University Medical Center and speaking at a town hall meeting on gun violence.
On Friday, accompanied by former El Paso congressman Beto O'Rourke, Giffords toured UMC to meet with medical staff and talk with the one remaining shooting victim still recovering there.
"Medical professionals are on the front lines of gun violence. They give strength and stability in the wake of tragedy. We can thank them by stopping bullet wounds in the first place," she tweeted following her visit.
Giffords also spoke briefly with Walmart shooting survivor Mario de Alba Montes, calling him "so resilient." She added: "He, his wife and daughter were all injured in the El Paso shooting, but they aren't giving up."
