Victoriana crossed the border from Mexico into Texas as a six-year-old orphan, marking the start of the family's American journey. Her daughter Rosie, JuliaÌn and Joaquin's mom, was an activist who helped the barrio through local government. The strong women in their family inspired the twins to get involved in politics. JuliaÌn and Joaquin have been working at the local, state, and national level--as a former presidential candidate, mayor and member of President Obama's Cabinet, and a U.S. Congressman, respectively--to make the country a better place for everyone."-- publisher's description. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references. 600 10 $a Castro, JuliaÌn. 600 10 $a Castro, JoaquiÌn. 650 0 $a Mexican American politicians $v Juvenile literature. $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Cabinet officers $z United States $v Juvenile literature. $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Mayors $z San Antonio $z San Antonio $v Juvenile literature. $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Legislators $z United States $v Juvenile literature. $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Mexican Americans $v Juvenile literature. $v Juvenile literature. 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a Ortega, Mirelle, $e illustrator. 941 $a 7 952 $l GOPG641 $d 20240409041212.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20231012025255.0 952 $l KDPB896 $d 20230519013519.0 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20220909064734.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20220317010942.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20210723014448.0 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722064926.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=F47AE5A2BF7911EB9A43D8CE50ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
