Community champion Veronica Escobar was elected to represent El Paso in 2018, making her the first Latina to represent Texas in Washington, DC.
In Congress, she sits on the Armed Services, Judiciary, and Ethics Committees in addition to the Select Committee on the Climate Crisis. Her leadership positions include serving previously as the Freshman Co-Representative to Leadership, Congressional Hispanic Caucus’s (CHC) Freshman Representative, the Congressional Progressive Caucus’s (CPC) Vice Chair and liaison to the CHC, Vice Chair of the Women’s Working Group on Immigration, and Vice Chair of the Women’s Caucus.
Rep. Escobar recognizes that given Israel’s status as the only democracy in the Middle East, it is a major strategic ally for the US. With that belief in mind, she recognizes the importance of active American leadership in the peace process. She supports a two-state solution that would ensure Israel’s future as both a Jewish and democratic state. In Congress, Escobar has led on this issue, co-sponsoring the 2020 House Resolution 326, reaffirming Congress’s support for a two-state solution.
