Housing and Urban Development Secretary Julian Castro will endorse Hillary Clinton for president next week in San Antonio, according to three sources with knowledge of the plan.

Clinton will be in town Oct. 15 for the first “Latinos for Hillary” organizing event in Texas and has made Hispanic voters a priority this fall, launching a bilingual SMS texting initiative to engage them, and showing up on stage at a Marc Anthony concert in Miami, among other efforts.

Democratic strategist Maria Cardona said the campaign has always planned to roll out Hispanic endorsements as its Latino initiative got underway and the elected officials, like Rep. Xavier Becerra recently, have a “put me in, Coach” mentality, excited to campaign for Clinton.

“The contrast for her in terms of both the launching of Latinos for Hillary and with Julian next week could not come at a better time with the debacle going on in the Republican side,” she said.............
