Interview with Senator Ruben Gallego on Democratic Strategy and Immigration Policy

Published | Video Starts at 12:06

If you go to these construction sites, these factories, the type of communication you're hearing that these guys talking to each other, it's very much not at all what we think. And tell me what that means. Well, Working class men don't really listen, especially Latino men don't really listen to political commercials. They don't watch TV news. They largely will talk amongst themselves and sometimes other working class men will come in with their opinion and that's the only thing they're hearing. That's it. (12:06–12:14)
