Veteran journalist Suzanne Gamboa, of NBC.com, joins us on our last podcast episode of the year to discuss immigration and U.S.-Mexico relations, Texas’ growing status as a political battleground especially in the upcoming midterms, and the importance of the Latino vote.

She also shares what shows she’s watching as she winds down the year. REFERENCES: Suzanne Gamboa - @SuzGamboa Articles NBCnews.com // Suzanne Gamboa and Nicole Acevedo – Where do Latinos live?
