In Colorado, Two Latinos Battle for Key Congressional Seat – In Colorado’s 8th District, another crucial battle for control of the U.S. House of Representatives is underway. Democrat Dr. Yadira Caraveo is seeking her first re-election in the state’s most Latino district, formed two years ago. Her opponent is Republican Gabe Evans, a military veteran and former police officer, and both are seeking to secure the crucial Latino vote. Jesús Sánchez Melean reports from Denver with the details on this competitive race.
Hotbed of Organic Farming – For more than two decades, an organization has been training workers and entrepreneurs to grow pesticide-free produce in California’s Salinas Valley. This industry has been expanding due to demand for healthy, environmentally-friendly food, and it is now supported by resources from the federal infrastructure fund. The program’s success is demonstrated by a Mexican worker turned organic farmer now known as the “Queen of Vegetables”. Dennis Maxwell visited her business and shares her story from the Salinas Valley.
