  • House Democratic leaders are backing Texas Rep. Henry Cuellar's 2024 re-election bid.
  • That's despite his an FBI raid on his home, his opposition to abortion, and other conservative positions.
  • Last year, some Democrats backed a progressive candidate running against Cuellar in the primary.

Top leaders in the House Democratic Caucus this week endorsed the re-election campaign of Rep. Henry Cuellar, a conservative anti-abortion Democrat who represents a South Texas district.
