“I, along with all the people in Palm Springs and the surrounding communities, thank Police Chief Andy Mills, Fire Chief Paul Alvarado, FBI Assistant Director Akil Davis, and all law enforcement officers, first responders, and health care professionals who responded swiftly and effectively. Thanks to their rapid response, all those injured in the bombing have been released from the hospital, and Palm Springs is safe.
