Australian treasurer Jim Chalmers said the shooting at Rodd Elementary School in Texas was a "senseless act of gun violence" during a press conference on Wednesday, May 25.
"It's hard to imagine that a great country like the United States can go on like this with this gun violence, these mass atrocities," Mr Chalmers said.
"I speak for the government and I think I speak for every Australian when I say our hearts go out to you who have been impacted by this. The families of those beautiful little kids and their teacher are the souls lost to another senseless act of gun violence in the United States."
