The Texas State Capitol and its grounds were evacuated on Saturday at approximately 1 p.m. local time after the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) identified a “credible threat” targeting state lawmakers planning to attend the “No Kings” protest against President Donald Trump later that day.
The protest was scheduled to begin at 5 p.m. at the Texas Capitol as part of nationwide demonstrations.
DPS said in a statement:
“Earlier today, the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) Capitol Region identified a credible threat toward state lawmakers planning to attend a protest later today, Saturday, June 14, 2025, at the Texas State Capitol Complex. Out of an abundance of caution, the Capitol and Capitol Grounds were evacuated around 1 p.m. and both remain temporarily closed. DPS continues working with our law enforcement partners to address the threat. As this investigation is ongoing, no additional information is available.”
“DPS has a duty to protect the people and property of Texas and is continuously monitoring events occurring today and their impact on public safety across the state. DPS will collaborate with all local, state and federal law enforcement partners to ensure the safety of our citizens and state property, as well as to protect individuals exercising their constitutional rights to assemble and free speech. As with any incident response, the department adjusts its operations, including personnel and resources, as needed to address potential and emerging threats.”
