EL PASO, Texas – Beto O'Rourke stood on a platform Saturday morning in the multicultural heart of downtown El Paso's shopping district – only blocks from the U.S.-Mexico border – challenging President Donald Trump's immigration policies.

"With Cuidad Juarez, we form the largest bi-national community in this hemisphere and, for 20 years running, we have been one of the safest cities in America," O'Rourke said, adding that the safety comes not in spite of immigrants and asylum seekers but because of them.

"We have learned not to fear our differences but to respect and embrace them," O'Rourke said.

When O'Rourke announced that he would run for president last month, he promised that he would return to his hometown for a March 30 rally.
