Bobby Pulido: From Tejano Star to Congressional Candidate

Bobby Pulido spent 30 years making music that moved you. Now he's running for U.S. Congress, and his reason starts with a $10,000 medical bill that came down to $1,500 the moment he asked to pay cash. In this episode, host Anjelica Cazares sits down with Tejano legend Bobby Pulido, son of Tejano icon Roberto Pulido, former St. Mary's University political science student, and now Democratic candidate for U.S. Congress in Texas District 15 to talk healthcare, corruption, Citizens United, and why your vote in even the smallest local race can decide everything. This is the conversation every Latina entrepreneur and middle-class family in Texas needs to hear.
