Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, D-Ariz., returned to Congress tonight for the first time since being shot in the head in January, casting a vote in support of the compromise debt ceiling bill.
"Gabrielle has returned to Washington to support a bipartisan bill to prevent economic crisis," read a message posted to Giffords' Twitter account while members began casting their votes on the House floor.

Not long beforehand, her Twitter account announced, "Gabrielle has returned to Washington to support a bipartisan bill to prevent economic crisis."
Giffords, 41, if you will remember was seriously injured in a shooting rampage in Tucson, Arizona, on January 8 that killed six and left the lawmaker plus 12 others wounded.
I would like to welcome Gabrielle back to Congress. I may not agree with much of her politics, but I applaud that she survived the assassins bullet.
