“我们可以让THC和大麻合法化并对其征税。我们要废除移民及海关执法局，我们要向富人征税，我们还要让我这位朋友、下一任得克萨斯州联邦参议员詹姆斯·塔拉里科当选！”威廉姆斯在热烈的掌声中高喊道。
"We can legalize and tax THC and cannabis. We're gonna abolish ICE, we're gonna tax the rich and we're going to get my friend, the next United States senator from the state of Texas, James Talarico, elected!" Williams exclaimed to raucous applause.
“不，我从来没有（主张废除），”塔拉里科回应道，并补充说，“这个国家需要移民及海关执法局，但我们看到的并不是这样。过去一年我们看到的是一个秘密警察机构，而这正是我们国家不想要的。”然而，塔拉里科近期的言论与他过去的表态有所不同。今年1月，在与得克萨斯州民主党众议员贾斯敏·克罗克特的初选辩论中，塔拉里科曾表示，是时候“拆掉”移民及海关执法局了。
"No, and I never have," Talarico responded, adding, "We need Immigration and Customs Enforcement in this country, but that's not what we're seeing. What we've seen over the last year is a secret police force, and that's what we don't want in this country." Talarico's recent remarks, however, depart from past comments. In January, during a primary debate with Rep. Jasmine Crockett, D-Texas, Talarico said it was time to "tear down" ICE.
一场陷入僵局的选战正让他重新回到聚光灯下。周二在介绍塔拉里科时，威廉姆斯还为大量深受新兴民主社会主义者群体欢迎的政策站台，同时似乎抨击了总统唐纳德·特朗普以及塔拉里科的共和党对手肯·帕克斯顿。
A DEADLOCKED RACE IS BRINGING HIM BACK troducing Talarico on Tuesday, Williams also stumped for a wide number of policies popular with the rising crop of democratic socialists while appearing to bash President Donald Trump and Talarico's Republican opponent Ken Paxton.
民主党人可以在全国最重大的议题之一——数据中心——上率先发力。“当我们有令人难堪的失败议员支持一个法西斯分子、种族主义者、强奸犯、战争罪犯时，我要说我们理应得到更好的！当得克萨斯州的支柱——我们的牧场主和农民——告诉我们他们不想要数据中心，而我们的政客却一如既往地喜欢那样做，不经同意就强加给我们时，我要说我们理应得到更好的！”威廉姆斯在欢呼声中高喊道。
DEMOCRATS CAN TAKE THE LEAD ON ONE OF THE NATION’S TOP ISSUES – DATA CENTERS "When we have embarrassing loser representatives that support a fascist, racist, rapist, war criminal, I say we deserve better! When the backbone of Texas, our ranchers and farmers, tell us that they do not want data centers and then our politicians, as they love to do, they force it upon us without consent, I say we deserve better!" Williams exclaimed to fanfare.
威廉姆斯还主张增加教育经费、提供有保障的儿童保育以及扩大医疗保健，这些都是美国民主社会主义者组织所推崇的政策。
Williams also advocated for more education funding, guaranteed childcare and an expansion of healthcare, all popular policies with the Democratic Socialists of America.
塔拉里科、威廉姆斯和帕克斯顿的竞选团队均未立即回应福克斯新闻数字频道的进一步置评请求。
The Talarico, Williams and Paxton campaigns did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital for further comment.
