Washington, D.C. —Latino Victory Fund congratulated John Lira for winning in the Texas Democratic primary election for Congressional District 23. Nathalie Rayes, Latino Victory Fund President and CEO, released the following statement:
“John Lira is an experienced public servant and a veteran who will fight for his community in Congress with the same valor and dedication with which he served his country. He’ll be a tireless advocate for issues that create opportunities and equity for all in the Texas 23rd District, including support for small businesses, voter protection rights, immigration reform with a pathway to citizenship, and access to affordable health care. If John wins in November, the majority-Latino 23rd District will have a representative in Congress who will support issues that improve the quality of life for Latinos in Texas.
