State of Texas - February 18, 2024

This week, we feature Colin Allred and Roland Gutierrez, the top two democrats in the race for U.S. Senate. Josh Hinkle interviewed both of them separately, asking similar questions about key issues. We're putting their answers back to back, with the goal of helping Texas voters learn more about this key race. Also, we hear from the man they're trying to beat in November, Senator Ted Cruz. Ryan Chandler traveled to Houston for a one-on-one interview with the Senator, focusing on immigration. State of Texas is a statewide, in-depth program focused solely on Texas politics. Produced at KXAN in Austin and airing in 14 markets across the state, the show gives viewers greater perspective on the Texas Legislature, state policy and elections.
