Texas Congressman Sylvester Turner Passes Away Following Appearance at Congress — Full Story

Texas Representative Sylvester Turner, a first-term Democratic congressman, passed away at 70 just hours after attending President Donald Trump’s address to Congress. Turner, who was sworn into office in January, experienced a medical emergency in the Capitol tunnel and was assisted by Capitol Police. Despite being released from the hospital that night, he died at his Washington, D.C., home early Wednesday due to ongoing health issues.

A lifelong public servant, Turner served as Houston’s mayor for two terms, guiding the city through crises like Hurricane Harvey and the COVID-19 pandemic. Known for his dedication to his community, he was celebrated as a champion for the underserved. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries praised Turner as an “iconic leader” and a relentless advocate. His final social media post highlighted his commitment to protecting Medicaid, a cause he passionately supported. Turner’s passing has left a profound void in both Washington and Houston, where he was deeply respected and admired.
