James Talarico: I’m not writing off any voters or any community.

I’ve traveled to every corner of Texas and I’m shocked by the number of people showing up to our events.

Heads are going to explode 💥

Cato Institute just nuked the lie. Immigrants have cut U.S. deficits by $14.5 TRILLION since 1994, slashing the national debt by a third.

All that “immigrants are bleeding us dry” noise? Absolute bullshit.
