"A quinceanera isn't just a pachanga [party], it's a rite of passage that brings family and neighbors together, and honestly, that's exactly what this campaign is about."
"Both Democrats and Republicans have been preoccupied with corporate interests, and I want to refocus on the issues impacting real voters."
"Tejano culture reflects the values I would uphold if elected, focusing on community and the needs of South Texas."
Bobby Pulido, a Tejano music star, announced his candidacy for Texas' 15th congressional district. He aims to challenge incumbent Rep. Monica De La Cruz, who previously flipped the historically blue district. Pulido emphasizes the importance of community celebrations like quinceaneras, which he believes reflect the values of South Texas. His campaign focuses on affordability and healthcare access, criticizing both parties for prioritizing corporate interests over real voter issues. Pulido's connection to Tejano culture is central to his political identity and campaign message.
