House Republicans are targeting the Rio Grande Valley in 2022, identifying South Texas as a fertile electoral crescent after then-President Donald Trump supercharged GOP turnout last year and transformed the traditional Democratic stronghold into a competitive battleground.
The National Republican Congressional Committee is investing resources to flip three Democrat-held districts that only narrowly supported then-candidate Joe Biden over Trump in November after overwhelmingly voting for Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton four years earlier. House Republicans are confident the party’s growth in the heavily Hispanic border region of Texas was not an aberration but rather a possible sea change that will deliver for the party in the midterm elections if properly nurtured.

The majority Black workforce in Bessemer is challenging the world’s richest human, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos, in their fight to be recognized by the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union (RWDSU). Bezos is so desperate to bust the union drive, he is illegally offering workers $2,000 to $3,000 “resignation bonuses.”
Speaking in East New York, part of Brooklyn, N.Y., outside an Amazon fulfillment center, Omowale Clay from the D12 Movement said: “A yes vote for the union will be a mighty blow against Amazon. A win in Bessemer will be a shot in the arm to organized labor, which will be heard around the world!”
