Undecided voter now supporting James Talarico: When he mentioned that Paxton is actually for data centers, that did sway me a lot. So I think he probably will get my vote.

Trump: These seats are really—there's nothing like it. It's really important. It's bigger than the football games. It's bigger than the basketball games. It's bigger than any game anywhere in the world.

James Talarico: Powerful people are using small minorities in our community to distract from their corruption. The only minority destroying America is the billionaires.

James Talarico: We can look at the current abortion ban in Texas, which bans abortion in all cases, including rape and incest or when the mother's life is in danger. Texas women are dying in emergency room parking lots from sepsis because their doctors are afraid to provide life-saving care.

"I do not need you to mansplain to me what domestic abuse and sexual assault against women is. Don't start. Sit over there."

James Talarico: Texas has teachers who are driving Ubers at night to make extra money. The teaching profession is the most important profession because without it, there would be no other professions. Everything starts with a teacher in a classroom, and we are nickel-and-diming.

Cait Conley: Mike Lawler is the biggest data center champion this district has ever seen. He even bragged last year about helping Rockland County become “the destination for data centers.” He voted against local control. I will fight for you and make sure we do this right.

James Talarico: We've seen under this administration a different kind of extremism. Masked men in unmarked vehicles kidnapping neighbors off the street. We were told that ICE was going after violent criminals, but they're going after Uber drivers, small business owners.

James Talarico: I don't take corporate PAC money. I never have, never will. I don't work for them. I work for the people of Texas. I'm running to ban super PACs and corporate PACs.

James Talarico: I want an economy that creates fewer trillionaires and more millionaires. Right now, our tax system literally taxes work more than it taxes wealth. That's backwards.

Talarico on how his diabetes diagnosis moved him to tackle Big Pharma:

"When I got elected to the State House, I brought Democrats and Republicans together to pass the first-ever cap on insulin copays in our state's history. We took it from $684 to $25 per prescription."

James Talarico: I am tired of us being divided into teams—left vs. right, blue vs. red, urban vs. rural. Show of hands. How many people here have an elderly parent or grandparent who needs care? So do I. How many people struggle with the high price of everything? So do I.

James Talarico: That decision to stay home for a week sent conspiracy theorists spiraling. This is what I call the rage economy. Conspiracy theorists post anything they want. The billionaires who own these platforms get rich. Conspiracy theories don't put food on the table or gas in the tank.

James Talarico: It feels so good to be back in Fort Worth. My faith teaches me servant leadership, the idea that being a leader means being a servant. Over 4 terms in the Texas House, I've served my constituents, and I'm looking forward to doing that in the U.S. Senate.
