A Hispanic civil rights icon visited Rio Grande Valley residents in Brownsville and McAllen on Saturday to continue sharing her decades-old anthem, “Si se puede!” But this time, Dolores Huerta altered her well-known phrase in support of gubernatorial candidate Beto O’Rourke.

The 92-year-old activist known for her work with farmworkers since the 1950s packed both venues in Brownsville, at the Amigo Grand Ballroom, and in McAllen, where the owner of Koko’s decided for the first time ever to close his restaurant for the “Juntos Se Puede” tour.

Huerta, donning a white Mexican floral blouse, a red blazer, and a straw fedora, received a warm reception as she walked onto the modest platform in Brownsville to speak her mind — as she’s fearlessly done for more than half a century.

“We have to tell Greg Abbott, ‘Ya basta!’” she said, weaving English and Spanish into her stump speech for O’Rourke, who sat by the podium listening enthusiastically.
