Democratic lawmakers said Gov. Mike Pence was “dismissive” of Hispanics when he accused his Democratic rival for vice president of bringing up “that Mexican thing” during Tuesday night’s debate.

“His letting that phrase slip from his lips shows he was frustrated and exasperated and it shows how dismissive of our community both Mike Pence and Donald Trump are,” said Congressional Hispanic Caucus Chair Linda Sanchez, D-Calif. “It says, ‘do we even have to talk about that Mexican thing?'”
