Rep. Ron Wright (R-Texas) died Sunday after battling COVID-19, his family confirmed to The Dallas Morning News on Monday.

Wright, 67, tested positive for COVID-19 in late January. He said in a statement at the time that he was experiencing minor symptoms.

The Texas Republican was also diagnosed with lung cancer in 2018, and was admitted to a Dallas hospital in September 2020 due to complications from his treatment.
