Tejano music legend Bobby Pulido announces bid for Congress

Pulido aims to address economic struggles, immigration, and healthcare in a district where Trump won nearly 60% of the vote in 2024, challenging the incumbent Republican.

  • Tejano music legend Bobby Pulido announced his bid to run for the U.S. Congress in Texas' 15th District as a Democrat, citing struggles faced by families and small businesses in the region.
  • Pulido said he would use his voice to fight for the place they call home, as he has spent decades bringing people together through his music.
  • The current Representative, Republican Monica De La Cruz, stated that Pulido would be resoundingly rejected along with any other radical liberal, and that she was focused on delivering results for South Texans.
