Rep. Ronny Jackson (R-Texas) has responded to newly released body camera footage showing him being tackled to the ground by officers during an altercation at a rodeo outside the city of Amarillo in late July.

In the 31-minute video released by the Texas Department of Public Safety on Aug. 14, the two-term Republican congressman can be seen approaching a group of people surrounding a 15-year-old girl who authorities said was having a seizure.
