Mr. Bhojani takes his Quran to Austin (and makes Texas history) Y’all-itics: January 22, 2023

He is one of the first two Muslim Representatives ever elected to the Texas House as well as the first south Asian. But Rep. Salman Bhojani, a Democrat who represents Euless, Arlington, and other areas of Tarrant County, is used to being a first and he thinks that experience will help him in Austin… as will some of the bigotry and hate he endured on the campaign trail. Even the Quran he used to take the oath of office at the state Capitol is historic. In this episode of Y’all-itics, Rep. Bhojani joins a Jason and a Teresa to talk about his origin story and what he hopes to accomplish as a minority member of the minority party in a conservative state. Guest Rep. Salman Bhojani, (D) Euless
