In August 2019, Congressman Castro faced national attention and criticism after tweeting the names and employers of several San Antonio residents who had contributed to President Donald Trump's campaign. Critics labeled the move as an attempt to shame political donors, while Castro defended his actions by stating it was public information intended to highlight who was supporting a divisive political climate. He clarified in an interview on MSNBC's “Morning Joe” that he was not calling for a boycott but believed that political donations should be transparent, especially when connected to controversial policies impacting communities.
Joaquin Castro is married to Anna Flores. The couple was first wed in a private ceremony in November 2013. They later celebrated a renewal of vows in July 2014, marked by a photo shared on social media, where Anna wore a flowing white dress. The Castros keep their personal life relatively private but are known to be devoted parents.
