Congressman Joaquin Castro and his twin brother, San Antonio Mayor Julián Castro, by lauren gerson FLICKR

Manchester – Congressman Joaquín Castro and the Honorable Julián Castro will campaign for Hillary Clinton in New Hampshire on Monday, January 25th at volunteer and organizing events across the state. Both Castro brothers know there is a lot at stake for working families in 2016, and they are traveling to New Hampshire to talk to voters about Hillary Clinton’s plans to make the economy work for everyone – not just those at the top.

While in New Hampshire, the brothers will attend a meeting with leading experts and community leaders to discuss housing, infrastructure, and urban development issues. They will then travel to Durham to meet with UNH young Democrats and lay out why they believe Hillary Clinton is the best candidate to really tackle the rising cost of college, achieve equal pay for women, and create shared prosperity.

Additionally, the Honorable Julián Castro will kick off a phonebank with volunteers in Nashua and attend a statewide New Americans Meet and Greet event in Manchester.

Hillary for New Hampshire is building a grassroots campaign that connects supporters and builds relationships with Granite Staters through one-on-one meetings, small gatherings, and online engagement. At these events, volunteers will engage with voters and encourage them to be part of the campaign by signing a “Commit to Vote” card, pledging to vote for Hillary in the first in the nation primary.

Members of the public can sign up at hillaryclinton.com/events to receive more information about campaign events happening near them.

Oh yeah, it was a Grover 'drown government in the bathtub' Norquist invention.

How very right wing of Clinton's campaign.

Oh, and Tejano Hispanic. Very different from Cubano Hispanics.

She chose him long before Bernie Sanders was on the radar. That's why he so quickly got pulled into HUD to get him to DC.

My only negative about him is he is the bare minimum in qualifications to be a heartbeat away.

Until Bernie, this has been how the game is played, so I cannot fault them in their logic. They are both very smart guys who wish to rise to the top themselves. The fact that they will have to do the bidding of the .01% is a necessary evil to get rich and powerful!

They could have been transformative in Texas and a big boon to Latinos in this country. Instead they will sell out the people to corporate interests in return for power and riches! What a shame!

Therefore, I mostly pretend that they are nothing more than white noise. Hillary could find the cure for all cancers and obtain world peace, and they would still be bashing her. Who cares what they think? We need to focus on the large picture, ensuring that Hillary wins the nomination. I've mentally already gone past IA and NH.
