CHC BOLD PAC Launches BOLD Truth Video Series to Combat Misinformation and Expose the Republican Chaos Machine


Washington, D.C. – Today, CHC BOLD PAC – the campaign arm of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus – launched BOLD Truth, a video series aimed at combatting misinformation and speaking directly to voters about what is happening in Washington. At a time when Donald Trump and Republicans in the House and Senate are wreaking havoc on virtually every facet of American life – including our economy, health care, and education system – BOLD Truth will cut through the noise and distractions to deliver real talk about what’s happening and what it means for hardworking families. 


The new video series features Latina and Latino Members of Congress delivering sharp, unfiltered breakdowns of the issues that matter most to working families. From the economic pain caused by Republican-led tariffs to the threats to Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid and more, BOLD Truth will tell it like it is — with no spin and no lies.


“Our communities deserve to know the truth about what Donald Trump and Republicans are doing to them,” said CHC BOLD PAC Chairwoman Linda Sánchez. “That’s why we are launching BOLD Truth – to cut through the noise and show what’s really going on in Washington. Donald Trump is destroying our economy, hollowing out our country, and firing our workers. Republicans are helping him do it, taking an axe to people’s financial stability while driving up prices at the grocery store and doctor’s office. It’s pure chaos, and we’re here to set the record straight.”


Following its Our Lucha War Room, BOLD Truth is the latest initiative in BOLD PAC’s broader strategy to combat misinformation and expose Donald Trump and MAGA Republicans’ dangerous agenda. BOLD Truth fights back with facts—clearly and directly.


The series launches with two initial videos:


  • “No Bullsh*t, Just the BOLD Truth”: Introduces the series by highlighting the chaos in Washington and pointing out one simple truth – Republicans are responsible because Republicans are in charge.


  • “So You Want to Talk Tariffs”: Exposes the truth about Trump’s tariffs, their false promises of job growth, and the higher prices working families are already paying for everyday essentials like groceries, electronics, and clothing.



“NO BULLSH*T, JUST THE BOLD TRUTH” CAN BE VIEWED  HERE.



“Our country is in chaos right now.

Rising grocery prices,

A volatile stock market,

And we’re watching our retirement savings dwindle.

And who’s responsible for this chaos?

Well, look at who’s in charge: 

A Republican majority in Washington.

They control the House, the Senate, and the Presidency.

And instead of using that power to help everyday Americans–

Like lowering prices or improving health care–

They’re tanking our economy, 

They’re fighting with our allies,

And they’re robbing us of our security.

And, all the while, they’re trying to tell us that everything’s fine.

The Coward Caucus is not standing up to Trump.

And what’s worse, they’re trying to blame everything on Democrats.

Well, we’re here to tell you the truth.

No spin, no bullshit, just an honest explanation of what’s going on in Washington,

And what that means for you and your family.

That’s the bold truth.”



“SO YOU WANT TO TALK TARIFFS” CAN BE VIEWED  HERE.



“You want to know about tariffs?

I’ll tell you about tariffs.

Tariffs are a tax on goods that consumers buy every day.

Trump says that these beautiful tariffs are gonna magically bring manufacturing jobs back to the United States.

But he’s lying to you.

Because, without investments in our workforce to train them up,

Without investments in our infrastructure and our facilities,

Those jobs aren’t going to come back for five to ten years at the soonest–if they even come back at all.

In the meantime, consumers like you and me are gonna be paying more money out of our pockets for basic necessities and everyday goods.

Things like building materials, cars, iPhones, clothing, groceries–

You like your coffee?

Coffee.

Bananas.

Avocados.

All of those prices are gonna go up, and what’s the end result?

We’re not going to see the jobs that he says we’re going to see.

So don’t be fooled.

That’s the bold truth.”

CHC BOLD PAC lanza serie de videos “BOLD Truth” para combatir la desinformación y exponer el caos republicano




Washington, D.C. – Hoy, CHC BOLD PAC – el brazo de campaña del Caucus Hispano del Congreso – lanzó “BOLD Truth”, una serie de videos creada para combatir la desinformación y hablar directamente con los votantes sobre lo que realmente está ocurriendo en Washington.  En un momento que Donald Trump y los republicanos en la Cámara y en el Senado están causando destrucción en prácticamente todos los aspectos en los Estados Unidos, incluyendo nuestra economía, servicios de salud y la educación, BOLD Truth elimina el ruido y las distracciones para ofrecer una explicación directa y real sobre lo que está pasando y lo que significa para las familias trabajadoras.


La nueva serie cuenta con miembros latinas y latinos del Congreso, ofreciendo análisis directos y sin filtro sobre los temas que afectan a nuestras comunidades. Desde el impacto económico provocado por los aranceles de los republicanos hasta las amenazas contra el Seguro Social, Medicare, Medicaid y más, BOLD Truth dirá la verdad tal como es – sin rodeos ni mentiras. 


“Nuestras comunidades merecen saber la verdad de lo que Donald Trump y los republicanos están haciendo,” dijo la presidente de CHC BOLD PAC, Linda Sánchez. “Por eso estamos lanzando BOLD Truth, para cortar el ruido y mostrar lo que realmente está ocurriendo en Washington. Donald Trump está destruyendo nuestra economía, vaciando el país y despidiendo a nuestros trabajadores. Los republicanos le están ayudando a hacerlo, atacando la estabilidad económica de la gente mientras suben los precios en el supermercado y en servicios de salud. Es un completo caos, y estamos aquí para decir la verdad.”


Siguiendo la iniciativa Our Lucha War Room, BOLD Truth es el esfuerzo más reciente en la estrategia de CHC BOLD PAC para combatir la desinformación y exponer la peligrosa agenda de Donald Trump y los MAGA republicanos. BOLD Truth responde con la verdad, de forma clara y directa.


La serie lanza con dos videos iniciales: 


  • “Sin Mentiras, Solo La Verdad”: Presenta la serie destacando el caos en Washington y señalando la simple verdad: los republicanos son responsables porque los republicanos están al cargo.


  • “¿Quieres Hablar De Aranceles?”: Expone la verdad sobre los aranceles de Trump, sus falsas promesas de creación de empleos y los precios altos que las familias trabajadores ya están pagando por productos esenciales como alimentos, electrónicos y ropa.


“SIN MENTIRAS, SOLO LA VERDAD” SE PUEDE VER AQUÍ.




“Nuestro país está en caos.

Los precios del supermercado están subiendo. 

Un mercado de valores volátil. 

Y estamos viendo cómo se disminuyen nuestros ahorros para el retiro. 

¿Y quiénes son los responsables de este caos? 

Solo hay que ver quien esta en cargo: 

Una mayoría republicana en Washington. 

Ellos controlan la Cámara, el Senado y la Presidencia.

Y en lugar de usar este poder para ayudar a la gente trabajadora, 

Como bajando los precios o mejorando nuestro servicios de salud,

Están hundiendo nuestra economía,

Peleando con nuestros aliados, 

Y robandonos de nuestra seguridad.

Y mientras tanto, quieren hacernos creer que todo está bien.

El “Caucus Cobarde” no se enfrenta a Trump. 

Y lo peor es que quieren echarle la culpa a los demócratas.

Bueno, nosotros estamos aquí para decirte la verdad.

Sin vueltas, sin mentiras. Solo una explicación honesta de lo que está pasando en Washington.

Y lo que eso significa para ti y tu familia.

Esta es la verdad BOLD.”




“¿QUIERES HABLAR DE ARANCELES?” SE PUEDE VER  AQUÍ.



“¿Quieres saber sobre los aranceles?

Te lo explico.

Los aranceles son impuestos sobre productos que los consumidores compran cada día.

Trump dice que estos ‘bellos’ aranceles van a traer de vuelta los empleos manufactureros a los Estados Unidos.

Pero te está mintiendo. 

Porque sin invertir en capacitación para nuestra fuerza laboral,

Sin invertir en nuestra infraestructura y en nuestras instalaciones,

Esos empleos no regresarán antes de cinco a diez años – si es que vuelven.

Mientras tanto, consumidores como tú y yo, pagaremos más por necesidades básicas.

Cosas como materiales de construcción, automóviles, iPhones, ropa, comestibles–

¿Te gusta el café? 

Café.

Platanos.

Aguacates.

Todos esos precios van a subir. ¿Y cuál es el resultado? 

No veremos los empleos que Trump prometió. 

Así que no te dejes engañar. 

Esa es la verdad BOLD.”

Trump doesn’t understand what it’s like to worry about putting food on the table, affording a doctor’s visit, or keeping the lights on. But millions of working families do and they’re the ones feeling the pain of his disastrous agenda. Republicans have made it clear that they stand with Trump’s extreme agenda over our communities.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: April 21, 2025 Contact: Karla Rodriguez Karla@chcboldpac.com BOLD PAC Endorses JoAnna Mendoza for Arizona’s 6th Congressional District WASHINGTON, D.C. – As part of its commitment to expanding Latino representation in Congress, CHC BOLD PAC is proud to endorse JoAnna Mendoza for Arizona’s 6th Congressional District. A Marine Corps veteran, single mother, and the daughter of farmworkers, Mendoza embodies the grit and resilience of working families across Arizona. In just 60 days, she raised over $810,000—an impressive display of grassroots strength and undeniable momentum. Mendoza is the candidate to flip this seat and defeat Juan Ciscomani. “JoAnna Mendoza is exactly the kind of leader Washington needs right now – tough, tested, and rooted in community,” said CHC BOLD PAC Chairwoman Linda Sánchez . “She has served our country with honor, and now she’s answering the call to serve again. Juan Ciscomani has spent his time in Congress pushing a dangerous far-right agenda, siding with MAGA extremists, and putting party loyalty over the needs of Arizonans. JoAnna is a battle-tested Marine and a proven leader who knows what true service means. She has what it takes to flip this seat and fight for Arizona’s working families.” "I’m honored to have the support of BOLD PAC — a powerful voice for Latino representation and working families,” said JoAnna Mendoza . “As a proud Latina, Marine veteran, and native Arizonan, I know what it means to fight for opportunity and equity. In Congress, I'm looking forward to standing with BOLD to deliver for our communities and ensure every family gets a fair shot.” ABOUT JOANNA MENDOZA JoAnna Mendoza is a Marine veteran, dedicated public servant, and single mother who has spent her life fighting for her country and her community. Raised in a rural Arizona farming community, she learned the values of hard work and resilience from an early age. Her family often struggled to make ends meet, relying on safety-net programs, shaping her deep commitment to public service. At 17, JoAnna joined the Marines, where she served multiple deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan. She became a Drill Instructor, training the next generation of service members. After 20 years of honorable service, she continued her public service as a congressional staffer, a school board member, and a veteran advocate. JoAnna will be a relentless advocate for working families, rural communities, veterans, education, health care, and Arizona’s natural environment.

BOLD PAC Shatters Q1 Fundraising Record, Raises Over $3.2 Million in Push to Take Back the House and Senate

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: April 3, 2025 Contact: Karla Rodriguez Karla@chcboldpac.com BOLD PAC Shatters Q1 Fundraising Record, Raises Over $3.2 Million in Push to Take Back the House and Senate Washington, D.C. - BOLD PAC, the campaign arm of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, announced today that it raised over $3.2 million in the first quarter of 2025, marking its strongest Q1 fundraising total ever in an off-year. This record-breaking momentum underscores what Senator Cory Booker and Democrats across the country are saying: the fight to take back the House and Senate is on–and we are fired up. The $3.2 million raised this quarter significantly outpaces BOLD PAC’s Q1 totals in previous off-years. This includes the $2.01 million raised in the first quarter of 2017 when a sea of Democratic energy led the party to flip 43 seats in the House during Donald Trump’s first term. The record-breaking haul underscores how energized and mobilized Democrats are early in the midterm cycle. “Donald Trump is back in the White House, and our communities are already paying the price. He’s damaging our economy, rolling back our rights, threatening our Social Security and Medicare, and doubling down on the same extremist playbook that hurts working families,” said Chairwoman Linda Sánchez . “But we’re not backing down. This historic fundraising total shows how fired up the Democratic base is to hold him accountable. BOLD PAC is channeling that energy into action to protect our communities and take back the House and Senate next year.” ### CHC BOLD PAC , the campaign arm of the Hispanic Caucus, was founded in 2001 to increase Latino representation in Congress.

TRUMP’S FIRST MONTH HAS ONLY MADE LIFE MORE EXPENSIVE FOR AMERICANS

By Bold . • March 6, 2025
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: March 05, 2025 Contact: Karla Rodriguez Karla@chcboldpac.com TRUMP’S FIRST MONTH HAS ONLY MADE LIFE MORE EXPENSIVE FOR AMERICANS WASHINGTON, D.C. – As President Trump delivered his first speech to a Joint Session of Congress, one fact is clear: his first month in office has done nothing to bring down costs for working families — in fact, he’s hurting their pocketbooks. Instead of fighting to lower prices at the grocery store, reduce the cost of prescription drugs, or lower the costs of housing, Trump has spent his time: Ignoring the spike in egg prices, with the national average hitting $5 in his first month back. Eggs shouldn’t be a luxury. Pressuring Republicans to pass a budget resolution that would cut $2 billion in federal Medicaid funds from each congressional district, gutting health care for 15.9 million Americans . Rolling back an executive order from the Biden administration to lower prescription drug prices to $2. Admitting—twice —that lowering costs and making life more affordable is not his top priority . “Donald Trump promised to help working Americans, but his first month back in the White House has been a disaster for their wallets,” said Chairwoman Linda Sánchez . “He’s proving once again that he’s only looking out for himself while Latino families foot the bill. BOLD PAC remains committed to electing leaders who will put working families first. We won’t let Trump’s disastrous policies go unchecked.” CHC BOLD PAC CHC BOLD PAC is the campaign arm of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus (CHC) and is dedicated to increasing diversity in the House and Senate by helping more Latinos get elected.
