ANCA Mobilizes Against Rep. Cuellar in South Texas Race
Time for a reckoning in South Texas
The Armenian National Committee of America (ANCA) is mobilizing voters in South Texas to oppose Rep. Henry Cuellar's reelection bid. Cuellar, who co-chairs the Congressional Azerbaijan Caucus, was indicted in 2024 on federal corruption charges involving hundreds of thousands of dollars in alleged bribes from Azerbaijan. According to the article, he used his position to influence U.S. policy against Artsakh and Armenia, contributing to Azerbaijan's displacement of 150,000 Armenians.
The ANC's Texas chapter has distributed packets containing Cuellar's 54-page indictment to Armenian parishes throughout the 28th Congressional District, with materials in English and Spanish. ANCA is supporting Judge Tano Tijerina, Cuellar's opponent, who has pledged to represent constituent interests over foreign influence.
