A new campaign video airing across Texas features James Talarico contrasting his record with the legal troubles of opponent Ken Paxton. Talarico acknowledges Paxton’s claim that he lacks experience, but specifies that he has never been indicted for fraud, reported to the FBI for bribery, impeached by his own party, or given a sweetheart deal to a pedophile.
The advertisement positions Talarico’s background as a ‘different kind of experience’ based on his time as a legislator. He cites collaborating with both parties to cap insulin costs and passing the largest property tax cut in Texas history as evidence for why a new approach is needed in Washington for the Texas Senate seat.
