BOLD PAC’s Statement on Trump’s Supreme Court Nomination FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Jazmin Vargas jazmin@chcboldpac.com WASHINGTON — Today, Donald Trump announced Amy Coney Barrett as his nominee for the Supreme Court seat vacated by the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. In response, CHC BOLD PAC Chairman, Tony Cárdenas, issued the following statement: “Just weeks before the November 3rd election and while ten states have already begun casting ballots, President Trump and Mitch McConnell are shamelessly rushing to confirm Judge Amy Coney Barrett to ensure a conservative majority in the Supreme Court. This despicable power grab will further erode the rights and protections the Affordable Care Act have afforded millions of Americans with pre-existing conditions. “In 2016 with months left in the Presidential election, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said, 'The American people should have a voice in the selection of their next Supreme Court Justice. Therefore, this vacancy should not be filled until we have a new President.' Mitch McConnell is now blatantly disregarding the voice of the American people. “The American people should be heard and have a voice in deciding who will fill the Supreme Court vacancy, especially during a pandemic when health care for millions of Americans is on the line. Judge Ginsburg’s dying wish was for the president elected on November 3rd to choose her successor, and we will fight to honor it.” ### 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 almost doubled the size of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus.

With Early Voting Underway, BOLD PAC Reiterates the Need to Engage Latino Voters “With less than 41 days until Election Day, we must invest in turning out the Latino vote like our lives depend on it.” FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Jazmin Vargas jazmin@chcboldpac.com WASHINGTON -- With early voting starting and set to begin in several states across the country including in Virginia, Michigan, Arizona, New Jersey, Minnesota, and Illinois, CHC BOLD PAC Chairman, Tony Cárdenas, released the following statement: “Trump's lack of leadership has proven deadly. Over 200,000 Americans have died -- nearly thirty-seven thousand Latinos among them -- as a direct result of Trump's negligence during a global pandemic. In addition to the unprecedented loss of life, our economy has been devastated, with unimaginable unemployment rates and closures of small businesses. In the midst of this crisis, President Trump continues to lead the Republican effort to strip health care from millions of Americans with pre-existing conditions -- one which will now be COVID-19. We owe it to essential workers in the fields, in the meat-packing facilities, in our hospitals and schools to vote Trump out of office, and the Latino vote can be a difference maker in November. “With over 32 million eligible Latino voters in America, Latinos are a logical pathway to victory for Democrats. The Latino community’s collective voice -- our tremendous electoral power at the ballot box -- will be crucial to making Trump a one-term president, taking back the Senate, and building on our House majority. “Latino voters are a critical part of every competitive swing state -- Florida, Arizona, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan. Matching the investments in Latino turnout of elections past will not be enough to win this November, especially against Trump’s campaign efforts to cut Latino Democratic support at the margins. With voters in several states already casting their ballots, campaigns and independent expenditures need to double-down their investments on Latino outreach and turnout efforts that are culturally competent, and empower Latinos in the room where spending decisions are made. With less than 41 days until Election Day, we owe it to all Americans to invest in turning out the Latino vote, because our lives depend on it.” ### CHC BOLD PAC, the campaign arm of the Hispanic Caucus was founded in 2001 to increase Latino representation in Congress.
