He spent the next year making impassioned pleas for tougher gun laws and firings over police waiting more than an hour to confront the gunman. Gutierrez was little known beyond his South Texas district, which includes Uvalde, before a gunman killed 19 children and two teachers at Robb Elementary School. It sets up a rare competitive Democratic primary for a major race in Texas, where decades of Republican dominance has often discouraged bigger-name Democrats from running statewide. He says his campaign has since raised more than $6 million. Colin Allred became the first to enter the race. “Out of one of the darkest days, the people of Uvalde became more than constituents, they became family,” Gutierrez said in his announcement. He showed the faces of parents of children killed in the May 24 school massacre who have supported his legislative efforts for accountability following the shooting. In a three-minute video, Gutierrez launched his campaign focusing on resources for rural Texas and telling his immigrant story while making his way through Uvalde.
