Friend, I would like to share a little bit of my family’s story and why I’m running to be the first Latina to ever represent Oregon in Congress. I hope you’ll take a moment to read it and then chip in to my campaign and help me make history.

Today marks the end of Hispanic Heritage Month, but as a Latina, I reflect daily on the contributions that the Latino community has made to our country. And I know that millions of people in this country share my story – and my pride. Right now, I want to share the story of my father – a proud Latino man who inspires me every day.

Like many who made the harrowing journey before and after, my father immigrated from Mexico to the United States. Upon his arrival, he worked in the fields picking cotton and tomatoes in the Rio Grande Valley, joining millions of other migrants who sustain our country's agriculture industry. Later in life, he joined the military, and after serving two tours in Vietnam, he earned his U.S. citizenship. After that, he spent three decades as a police officer.

Our stories are vast and varied, and no two are ever exactly alike. But in hearing each other's stories, we can sense the familiar. My immigrant father was a field worker, soldier, and police officer, but I know that his story resonates with doctors, teachers, and Members of Congress. As we close out Hispanic Heritage month I hope that we continue uplifting stories and voices from the Latino community every month of the year.

I’m running to be the first Latina to represent Oregon in Congress. I’ll fight to protect our community and the issues we care about. But I need your help to get there. I’m polling neck-and-neck with my opponent, and experts agree it’s going to be a close race.

So, I have to ask: Can you please make a contribution to my people-powered campaign and help elect the first Latina to represent Oregon in Congress?
