FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: October 21, 2025 Contact: valeria@chcboldpac.com Denise Powell Leads NE-02 Fundraising, Surges Ahead of Primary Field in Bid to Flip Open Seat Grassroots-powered Democrat has raised nearly $750,000 to date—more than double her closest primary competitor WASHINGTON, DC – CHC BOLD PAC, the campaign arm of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, applauds Democrat Denise Powell’s fundraising performance in Nebraska’s open 2nd Congressional District. Powell has raised nearly $750,000 to date, outpacing every Democrat in the primary and more than doubling her closest competitor. Denise also has twice as much cash on hand as her closest competitor. With Don Bacon stepping down, NE-02 is the congressional district most likely to flip in the 2026 midterm elections. Now, Powell is proving she has the momentum, message, and movement needed to flip this seat blue. Her campaign is powered by Nebraskans who are fed up with rising health care costs and tired of the chaos MAGA Republicans have brought to Washington. Powell’s fundraising milestone cements her status as the Democratic frontrunner in NE-02 and adds to the national momentum building around her candidacy. With the general election now wide open, BOLD PAC is proud to support Denise Powell, who is ready to deliver real results for working families. ### CHC BOLD PAC, the campaign arm of the Hispanic Caucus, was founded in 2001 to increase Latino representation in Congress. Since its founding, BOLD PAC has more than doubled the size of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus.

Con casi $750,000 recaudados hasta la fecha, Powell supera ampliamente a todos los contendientes demócratas en la primaria. Ha duplicado tanto la recaudación como el efectivo disponible de su oponente más cercano. Con la salida de Don Bacon, el distrito NE-02 es el más propenso a cambiar de partido en las elecciones de mitad de término de 2026. Ahora, Powell está demostrando que tiene el impulso, el mensaje y el respaldo necesarios para recuperar este escaño para los demócratas. Su campaña está impulsada por habitantes de Nebraska, hartos del aumento en los costos de servicios de salud y de la inestabilidad que los republicanos MAGA han traído a Washington. Este hito en recaudación consolida a Powell como la favorita demócrata en NE-02 y refuerza el impulso nacional detrás de su candidatura. Con una elección general ampliamente competitiva, BOLD PAC se enorgullece de respaldar a Denise Powell, quien está lista para entregar resultados reales a las familias trabajadoras. ### CHC BOLD PAC, el brazo político del Congressional Hispanic Caucus, fue fundado en 2001 para aumentar la representación latina en el Congreso.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: October 21, 2025 Contact: valeria@chcboldpac.com ICYMI: JoAnna Mendoza Leads Juan Ciscomani in New Poll—Days After Outraising Him With Skyrocketing Grassroots Support and a Lead in the Polls, Mendoza’s Momentum is Undeniable WASHINGTON, DC – A new poll from House Majority PAC shows CHC BOLD PAC-endorsed candidate JoAnna Mendoza continues to pull ahead of vulnerable Republican, Juan Ciscomani, in Arizona’s battleground 6th Congressional District. Mendoza leads 42% to 41% in the head-to-head matchup—momentum that comes on the heels of her strong Q3 fundraising, where she outraised Ciscomani and posted over $1.9 million in grassroots support since launching her campaign. Meanwhile, Ciscomani’s support is crumbling: the poll finds nearly half of voters disapprove of his performance in Congress. That’s no surprise. Ciscomani has backed extreme MAGA policies—from slashing health care and rubber-stamping Trump’s reckless tariff agenda, to protecting tax breaks for billionaires while working Arizonans fall further behind. JoAnna Mendoza—a retired Marine, daughter of farmworkers, and working mom—is channeling the frustration Arizonans feel into a people-powered campaign that’s building serious momentum to flip this seat blue in 2026. ### CHC BOLD PAC, the campaign arm of the Hispanic Caucus, was founded in 2001 to increase Latino representation in Congress.

PARA DISTRIBUCIÓN INMEDIATA: 21 de octubre de 2025 Contacto: valeria@chcboldpac.com ICYMI: JoAnna Mendoza supera a Juan Ciscomani en nueva encuesta—días después de superarlo en recaudación Con un respaldo de base en auge y una ventaja en las encuestas, el impulso de Mendoza es innegable WASHINGTON, DC – Una nueva encuesta de House Majority PAC muestra que JoAnna Mendoza , candidata respaldada por CHC BOLD PAC, continúa superando al republicano vulnerable Juan Ciscomani en el competitivo 6º distrito congresional de Arizona. Mendoza lidera el cara a cara 42% a 41%, un impulso que llega tras su sólido desempeño en recaudación del tercer trimestre, donde superó a Ciscomani y ha recaudado más de $1.9 millones en apoyo de base desde el lanzamiento de su campaña. Mientras tanto, el respaldo a Ciscomani se desmorona: la encuesta revela que casi la mitad de los votantes desaprueba su gestión en el Congreso. Y no es para menos. Ciscomani ha respaldado políticas extremas del movimiento MAGA—desde recortes a servicios de salud y apoyo ciego a la agenda imprudente de aranceles de Trump, hasta proteger recortes fiscales para multimillonarios mientras las familias trabajadoras de Arizona siguen quedando atrás. JoAnna Mendoza—veterana de la Marina, hija de trabajadores del campo y madre trabajadora—está canalizando la frustración que sienten los arizonenses en una campaña impulsada por el pueblo, con un impulso real para recuperar este escaño en 2026. ### CHC BOLD PAC, el brazo de campaña del Caucus Hispano, se fundó en 2001 con el objetivo de aumentar la representación latina en el Congreso.

Original Article: La Opinión 10/15/2025 The path to winning Latino voters isn’t a mystery. It starts with investing in candidates. That’s what BOLD PAC has done for 24 years During Hispanic Heritage Month, we honor the generations of Latinos and Latinas who’ve shaped this country, often without the power, recognition, or resources we deserve. Our communities are foundational to this country’s success, and our leadership should be too. At CHC BOLD PAC–the political arm of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus–we know what it takes to win Latino voters because we’ve done it. While other campaigns lose ground, BOLD candidates outperform because we invest in candidates who can win. We proudly backed Senator Ruben Gallego, who earned overwhelming Latino support in Arizona. We stood with candidates like Rep. Maxwell Frost, Rep. Sam Liccardo, and Rep. Andrea Salinas through incredibly tough primaries, often winning against the odds. That’s why we’re all in for the next generation of Latina leaders who are ready to flip key Republican-held seats: Marlene Galán-Woods (AZ-01), JoAnna Mendoza (AZ-06), Denise Powell (NE-02), and Carol Obando-Derstine (PA-07). But too often, Latino leaders are told to wait their turn, or their lived experience isn’t quite the right fit, or that someone else is better suited to run. Even in districts powered by Latino voters, we see decisions made far from the communities most impacted. It’s a pattern we know too well, and it holds our country and our community back. The path to winning Latino voters isn’t a mystery. It starts with investing in candidates. That’s what BOLD PAC has done for 24 years, and that’s why we win with our community. If we want to reach Latino voters, we can’t start by sidelining the very leaders the community trusts. Because if investments are not in line with priorities, we risk losing ground in the very battlegrounds we can’t afford to. Hispanic Members and candidates have shown what’s possible when Latino leadership is uplifted. As Hispanic Heritage Month ends, let’s not just commit to reflect the country we live in, but to reflect the country we’re building. Democrat Rep. Linda Sánchez represents District 38 in California, which has a 61.70% Hispanic population. Sánchez is Chair of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus BOLD PAC.
