Over the weekend, I read an L.A. Times article about Latino voters that filled me with a renewed sense of hope.
As Gustavo Arellano writes, for too long Latinos have been regarded as the "'sleeping giant' of the American electorate." However, President Donald Trump and his anti-immigrant Administration have managed to wake the giant -- and I couldn't be more proud.
Help me fight back against hateful policies and push for thoughtful immigration reform by making a donation to my re-election campaign >>
While the majority of eligible white and Black Americans vote, historically, Latinos have not turned out in the same force.
That is, until now.
In his article, Arellano writes about a Mexican-American family from Lakewood, CA, that just voted for the first time after living in the United States for nearly 30 years. I was so excited to see that they even had a Linda Sánchez sign in their front yard! As the daughter of Mexican immigrants, stories like this motivate and inspire me every single day in Congress.
I am honored to fight alongside the gente decente who came to this country to make a better life for their families. And, I watch with pride as my Latino brothers and sisters use their voices to create positive change in this country -- a country that has all too often sidelined them.
As long as I represent the people of CA-38, I promise to amplify the voices of our immigrant communities -- but, first, I need to win re-election.
Will you help send me back to Congress on November 3rd, by chipping in anything you can right now?
Glad to have you in this fight,
-- Linda Sánchez
