This should anger every conservative, independent, and liberal American.
They’re destroying Big Bend National Park with absolutely zero impact on illegal immigration.
Absolutely backwards in every way.
We can honor the movement and still tell the truth. The women who built it deserve to be heard, respected, and believed.
Podemos honrar el movimiento y decir la verdad al mismo tiempo. Las mujeres que lo construyeron merecen ser escuchadas, respetadas y creídas.
As we approach the 96th birthday of Dolores Huerta on April 10, I hope that we in San Antonio continue to march, protest, and honor the legacy of Unity, Justice, and Civil Rights that was so hard fought and that we (clearly) must remain on guard for everyday.
Their movement is not a myth.
The news yesterday was heartbreaking, but the women who came forward, including Dolores Huerta, built a legacy that you will not succeed in erasing.
Their perseverance and fight for civil rights in Texas and the nation should be a model for us all.
The state of Texas will not observe the Cesar Chavez Day holiday. I am directing all Texas state agency heads to comply. In the upcoming legislative session, I will work with Texas lawmakers to remove Cesar Chavez Day from state law altogether.
Reports of the horrific and widely acknowledged sexual assault allegations against Cesar Chavez rightfully dismantle the myth of this progressive hero and undermine the narrative that elevated Chavez as a figure worthy of official state celebration.

Republicans can make fake vids, but this is the real James Talarico. It’s his actual gratefulness for receiving a gift from a student, drive to help him, concern when he saw him taken out of school, and determination to fight for students like him. This can never be replicated
I was honored to attend the homegoing service of one of my heroes: Rev. Jesse Jackson.
As a pastor, he preached unity and love. As a candidate, he built a multi-racial working-class coalition.
Thank you to the Jackson Family for inviting me to celebrate his incredible life.
I am opposed to this War.
This is not “America First.”
When Congress reconvenes, I will work with @RepRoKhanna to force a Congressional vote on war with Iran.
The Constitution requires a vote, and your Representative needs to be on record as opposing or supporting this war.
President Joella Methola and Political Director Jason Dones were in Amarillo by morning, up from San Antone for the launch of the Texas Panhandle Democrats! Shout out to our amazing Panhandle Regional Director Aubrey for all her hard work in making this happen!
