Can Sen. Gallego move past the Swalwell allegations? | America, Actually

Arizona Sen. Ruben Gallego is considering running for president in 2028. In a lot of ways, it makes sense: He’s an army veteran who represents a critical swing state with a sizable Latino electorate. But could his previously close relationship with former Congress member Eric Swalwell complicate his political future? This week on America, Actually, Gallego addresses his recent public apology regarding his ties to Swalwell following the Congress member’s sexual misconduct allegations. He also outlines his plans for bringing Latino voters back to the Democratic Party, and makes a case for why Democrats need to improve their outreach to men, including white men, in order to win elections. 00:00 Intro: Sen.
