From the sound of it, Rep. Gonzalez wants to make more money:

(CNN) – Rep. Charlie Gonzalez of Texas and chair of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus will forgo seeking an eighth term in the U.S. House of Representatives. [...]

A vocal advocate for voting rights, Gonzalez was involved in a lawsuit against the state over a GOP-carved redistricting map that he and other Democratic lawmakers said failed to reflect the growing minority population in Texas.

So who will replace him? We need more Progressives, stat.

    Progressives and now I’m saying, Occupy Candidates.

    …no more DINO’s either.
