Texas Representative Joaquin Castro Endorses Elizabeth Warren for President
4PresidentSan Antonio, TX – Today, the Warren for President campaign announced Texas Representative Joaquin Castro endorsed Elizabeth Warren for President. Castro serves as the Chairman of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus (CHC) and has represented Texas’ 20th District in San Antonio for four terms. A native son of Texas, Representative Joaquin Castro grew up on the west side of San Antonio and like Senator Warren, has fought for working and marginalized families throughout his career.
Castro’s support follows a series of endorsements from local officials and activists across San Antonio, Houston, and Austin and the endorsement of former San Antonio mayor and Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Julián Castro.
The campaign has announced its Texas State Director Jenn Longoria and already has over two dozen senior staffers and organizers across the state, who have been on the ground since the summer. Texas for Warren has opened offices in San Antonio and Austin, which brought together hundreds of supporters to show them all the ways they can get involved, and will open its next office in Houston this Friday, January 17th.
“Today, I’m endorsing Senator Elizabeth Warren for President, because she’s going to make sure that everyone has great opportunities to achieve their dreams and get ahead. Senator Warren is also the only candidate who can unite the Democratic Party and our country, two things essential to defeating Donald Trump and restoring America’s leadership role at home and abroad,” said Representative Castro. “Senator Warren is going to fight for all of us, including for people who came from neighborhoods like mine. That’s why I’m proud to be in this fight with her.”
