Happy Taco Tuesday, Dr. Jill!

Henry Cuellar, Vicente Gonzalez, and Michelle Vallejo must be sorely disappointed if they were hoping First Lady Jill Biden’s Texas trip would help President Biden’s tanking approval rating in Texas and give their congressional campaigns a boost.  

The First Lady’s trip to Texas was a disaster: 

• She spoke at a “LatinX lunch,” even though many Hispanics find the term offensive. 
• She compared Hispanics in San Antonio to breakfast tacos.
• She joked to donors at a fundraiser: “God, don’t ask me any questions about the economy.” 

Recent polling finds President Biden’s approval rating among Texas Hispanics is an abysmal 32%.
