DGA Chair Gov. Andy Beshear Statement on Gina Hinojosa's Primary Victory in Texas
DGA Chair Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear released the following statement on Gina Hinojosa securing the Democratic nomination for governor in Texas:
"Congratulations to Gina Hinojosa on becoming the Democratic nominee for governor of Texas. A native of the Rio Grande Valley, Gina is a fighter who has never been afraid to take on the status quo when it fails working families in Texas. Gina first ran - and won - a school board seat when her son's school was threatened with closing and as a legislator has fearlessly stood up to the corruption in Austin. Gina is running to strengthen public schools, end the culture of no-bid contracts, and build an economy where everyone has a fair shot. After decades of one-party rule, Gina is fighting to finally put state government back on the side of Texas workers and families."
