| Brownsville Observer Editor Jim Barton Interviews Presidential Candidate Tom Steyer
Ana and I, just married October 12, jumped at the chance to accompany Laura Miniel to Westerville, Ohio, the site of the Democratic Presidential Debate October 15. We arrived back in Brownsville last night with stories to tell and pictures to verify what will likely be several installments of the Brownsville Observer.
I was granted a 5-minute interview with Presidential Candidate Tom Steyer during which we discussed environmental racism, a point included in his platform, with huge corporations targeting impoverished areas populated by brown and black people desperate for jobs to locate their heavily-polluting fossil fuel businesses.
Steyer listened as I explained how three LNG companies were doing just that at the Port of Brownsville, threatening future tourism and a fragile eco-system, while garnering huge multimillion dollar tax abatements from inept, short-sighted politicos like our County Commissioners. Steyer shared his contact information.

Beto has a better chance of being president than Steyer. Interview Beto and maybe your interviews will matter.
ReplyDeleteThe more I hear about Tom, the more I like him. No one wants a career politician, that's why Democrats lost 2016. And the three polling highest are all career politicians, which is dangerous. We need another option up there. I like Beto too, but he's not looking so good right now funds-wise. It looks like Beto will withdraw any day now. If only Beto had run against Cornyn.
