Conservative Mexican-American Democrat, I enjoy living and working close to the state's capitol and trees. Why can't we draw strength from each other?

Star Cape Verdean goalkeeper Vozinha and his mother will be reunited in Miami in time for the match on Sunday.

Thank you to Secretary Rubio, U.S. State Department officials, the government of Cabo Verde and FIFA for working together to make this happen.

Today, my wife & I joined Donald Trump’s hit list. He has directed his Department of Justice to investigate us. They have not found a crime - they are simply trying to find one.

He isn't coming after me because of mean tweets, but because I am considering running for President.

He hates that I consistently call him out. He is simply the most corrupt President in American history.

We have nothing to hide. 

Mr. President, come after me. I am not going anywhere. 

The country is watching.

Seems like Texas becomes more in play for Democrats with each passing day.

As the son of immigrants, I know nothing is handed to us - we earn our way up through hard work.

My story is the story of so many Californians chasing the California Dream and fighting to build a better future for their families.

Let’s do this on June 2nd.

Tamales or tacos?

@ananavarro put me through my paces on a rapid fire round of “this or that” - Latino edition.

Ken Paxton is the most corrupt politician in America. 

He embodies the broken system we’re running against.

It’s time to come together: The People vs. Ken Paxton

Today, among the goods that are universally intended for everyone, we must also include new forms of property, such as patents, algorithms, digital platforms, technological infrastructure and data. In a context where the wealth of nations depends increasingly on knowledge and technology, when these goods remain concentrated in the hands of a few, without adequate forms of sharing and access, a new imbalance is created that contradicts the universal destination of goods. In turn, it widens the gap between the included and the excluded, between those who can participate in the digital revolution and those who remain on the margins. #MagnificaHumanitas

ProPublica obtained a vast cache of IRS information showing how billionaires like Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk pay little in income tax compared to their massive wealth — sometimes, even nothing.

Republicans own this reckless war of choice in Iran.

And the out of control gas prices crushing the American people.

You deserve better.

Tom Steyer made his billions off oil and coal.
I made my career taking them to court… and winning.

[Republicans against Trump @RpsAgainstTrump]

GOP Senator Thom Tillis slams Trump’s $1.8B slush fund:

“I think it’s stupid on stilts… Taxpayer dollars will compensate someone who assaulted a police officer, got convicted…and now we’re going to pay him for that? This is absurd!”

[Xavier Becerra @XavierBecerra]

The energy we’re seeing on the ground is real. Packed rallies, growing momentum, and Californians showing up ready to join me in the fight for the future of our state.

Let’s bring that momentum to the ballot box on June 2nd. Vote Xavier Becerra for Governor.

[Xavier Becerra @XavierBecerra]

I lead with optimism and resilience.

Immigrant families like mine have faced struggle, sacrifice, and discrimination, and keep pushing forward with grit, ganas, and hope for a better future. That spirit is stronger than Donald Trump and stronger than the fear and division he tries to create.

[Gina Hinojosa @GinaHinojosaTX]

I always love getting tacos with friends, but today was really something special.

[Xavier Becerra @XavierBecerra]

Honored to earn the support of Congresswoman Judy Chu, a longtime advocate for immigrant communities and working families. Together, we’ll keep fighting for opportunity and dignity for all Californians. @JudyChuCampaign

Happy Mother’s Day to all the hardworking moms across Texas.

The Lord commands us to love one another as He has loved us (cf. Jn 13:34): it is the love of Jesus that gives birth to love in us. Christ Himself is the criterion of true love: love that is faithful forever, pure and unconditional, love that gives without wanting to possess. #GospelOfTheDay
