Texas Is a Litmus Test for America's Politics (with Beto O’Rourke)

Texas hasn’t had a Democratic governor in nearly 30 years. Why does Beto O’Rourke think he can change that? Andy sits down with the former presidential candidate to discuss how the families of Uvalde victims are doing, his thoughts on Congress’ bipartisan gun bill, and how he plans to defeat Greg Abbott in November.

Keep up with Andy on Twitter @ASlavitt.
