As an overall, the meeting was long on excuses and on misrepresentations and short on information and solutions... one thing we do know, they are taking 1 % of every DHS department and putting that towards family detention and family separation.

I felt the calling to serve my country. My parents came to the United States from Mexico and Colombia, and this country treated them well. It gave my sisters and me the opportunity to get an education and succeed. I wanted to repay my country for how they treated my family and ensure that our values and freedom are intact for future generations.

There is an undeniable economic and cultural disconnect between many of those who volunteer to serve and those who choose to remain civilians. But what is more concerning to me is the disconnect between our political leadership that applauds our soldiers and veterans, but then won't provide funding to properly armored vehicles or health care when our servicemen and women come home. You can't send men and women to war without being prepared to take care of them abroad and give them the services they need when they return home.

Our economic strength at home is key to our diplomatic and military strength abroad. We should be investing far more in education as well as our technological and economic development so that we have the resources to support our foreign policy.

Tom Perez is really bringing in the labor aspect of the Democratic Party, a group of voters that need to get back, also Latinos. You know, he is the first Latino DNC chair in the history of Democratic Party, a growing demographic that really over performed last time.

We know that polling is really tight, but we also know that Maxwell has got a lot of momentum on his side, you gotta remember [Frost] started with zero name ID, and now the last polling has him all tied.

Russia is an autocratic bullying country and ... they're the bad guys. We, NATO,democratic countries, are the good guys, it's OK to say that it's OK for us to fight that way.

President Obamawas wrong about that and the way he actually dealt with Russia was entirely, you know, I thinkweak and probably has caused problems that we see right now in terms of encouraging Russia to act in thisaggressive manner.

The U.S. being involved now is actually probably the cheaper alternative to finding ourselves in a massive land war ... against an imperialistic Russia.

To be honest, I have gotten a lot of encouragement from elected officials, from senators, from unions, from your traditional Democratic groups, big donors, everything you can imagine under the sun.

We won’t shrink from protecting our democracy and the voting rights of all Americans. It’s past time for the U.S. Senate, and Sen. Sinema, to do the same.

For me, all I care about is what happens between now and 2022, those questions wait, wait.

Afghanistan was always going to collapse, keeping Afghanistan low profile stopped many including Congress from seeing institutionally how weak it was and asking for hard reforms or a quicker exit.

The Joe Biden campaign would admit they were slow to get out to Latinos communities. Joe Biden presidential campaign is not because they didn't want to, Joe Biden presidential campaign is because when they captured the nomination, the country had to shut down and they were broke, too.

Our voting rights are under attack and efforts to disenfranchise youth could have lasting effects for decades to come.

With the Arizona Primary less than two weeks away, I'm proud to endorse Joe Biden for President. As a combat veteran I can think of no better leader to serve as our Commander in Chief, i know Joe Biden for President has the wisdom, experience, compassion, and empathy to beat Donald Trump and get our government working again.
