Hundreds converged on Maverick County Lake to listen to a key note address by The Honorable Julian Castro, Mayor of San Antonio, who this year did the same at the most significant event of this political season, the Democratic National Convention. There's never been a more important time for folks to come out and vote," stated Castro in an exclusive interview with The eagle Pass News Gram, "the issues that are on the table that affect our lives: Medicare, jobs and the economy, the issue of education and how much we're gonna invest in that for our young people."
