00:00Thank you. The Texas Democratic Party is considering a resolution to condemn Henry Cuellar for a number of votes where he was one or two of the Democrats for a Republican bill, saying he has disregard for the values of the Texas Democratic Party, speaking of number protection.
00:16One, do you oppose Texas Democrats condemning him for those reasons? Two, does Henry Cuellar have disregard for the values of the Democratic Party?
00:23Henry Cuellar is a great member of the Democratic caucus. I serve with him on the Appropriations Committee.
00:31He's a thoughtful public servant who always has the interests of South Texas and Laredo on his mind.
00:39He's always talking about international trade and the importance that that brings to the U.S. and Texas economies.
00:46And so I'll let the Texas Democrats do what they need to do. I'm not a voter in that election.
00:51But Henry's contributions are vast and many within this caucus.
