After President Trump bucked tradition and withheld his tax returns during his successful 2016 campaign, Democrats vying for their party's 2020 nomination are vowing to make such information public.

The former congressman and U.S. Senate nominee held the first of three Saturday launch rallies in his hometown of El Paso, and planned gatherings later in the day at Texas Southern University in Houston and at the Texas Capitol in Austin.

President Donald Trump last visited Texas in February, when he went to El Paso to rally support for a border wall. He's expected to be back in the state for fundraisers April 10, according to people familiar with his plans.

The Democratic presidential candidate is holding three rallies across Texas on Saturday, his first campaign events in his home state since launching his 2020 bid two weeks ago.

O'Rourke has brought on veteran Democratic strategist Jennifer O'Malley Dillon to lead his White House bid.

The former El Paso congressman hit six states in the first seven days of his nascent White House bid, plowing through the ups and downs of the trail while maintaining a breakneck pace.

O'Rourke raised $6.1 million in his first 24 hours as a presidential candidate, surpassing his 2020 Democratic rivals' totals for the same period. Bernie Sanders raised $5.9 million in his first 24 hours.

O'Rourke has long said he wants health care to be affordable, high quality and universal — a goal that brought questions from voters during his first few days as a presidential candidate.

By the second day of his Iowa debut, O'Rourke was fully submerged in the buzzsaw that is a presidential campaign.

O’Rourke called the writings he produced while part of the group "really hateful, really bad stuff" and said he was "mortified to read it now."

The newly minted presidential candidate kicked off a three-day tour of Iowa on Thursday, shortly after making his 2020 bid official.

The former Democratic congressman from El Paso is jumping into the crowded race to take on President Donald Trump after O'Rourke's closer-than-expected loss to U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz in November.

A tennis coach at the University of Texas was among those charged in the fallout from the scandal.

Democrat Ray Lopez won the special election runoff Tuesday night for the seat formerly held by state Rep. Justin Rodriguez, D-San Antonio.

The former El Paso congressman is expected to visit the critical early voting state to stump for a state legislative candidate.
