Republican Politicians Are Still Spreading Lies and Hiding the Truth

Washington, D.C. - Today, CHC BOLD PAC Chairman Ruben Gallego announced that the organization launched its second digital ad campaign of the 2022 election cycle, titled, “Attack.” 

 

The ad highlights how Republican politicians have turned their backs on American democracy by remaining silent for a full year after Donald Trump tried to overturn the presidential election results by spreading the “Big Lie.” These lies resulted in a violent attack on the nation’s Capitol, the death of several Americans, and the injury of 140 police officers. The 15-second ad will run in both Spanish and English.

 

“Republicans in Congress helped spread the 'Big Lie' and have consistently denied the full scale of violence at the Capitol, comparing the mob’s breaching of the building to a ‘normal tourist visit.’ One year later, they are still hiding the truth about the insurrection, turning their backs on our democracy, and standing with extremists and insurrectionists. It’s time for leaders who won’t look the other way and abandon this great country,” said BOLD PAC Chairman Ruben Gallego. “The best way to fight the Republican disinformation campaign is to uncover the truth about what they knew and how they were involved and to hold them accountable for their actions. This is an important issue for BOLD PAC because misinformation campaigns continue to target the Latino community, especially through their use of Spanish-language media.”

 

Republican politicians have proven that they are determined to do anything to hold power -- including spreading lies about their own electoral losses and doubling down on voter-suppression tactics that target voters of color. Working families deserve better representation and a more diverse Congress that reflects the values and experiences of all Americans.

CHC BOLD PAC Lanza Nuevo Anuncio Digital para Responsabilizar a los Republicanos


Un año después de la insurrección del 6 de enero,

los políticos republicanos siguen difundiendo mentiras y ocultando la verdad


PARA PUBLICACIÓN INMEDIATA

Washington, D.C. – Hoy el presidente de CHC BOLD PAC, Rubén Gallego, anunció que la organización lanzó su segunda campaña publicitaria digital del ciclo electoral de 2022, titulada "Ataque".

 

El anuncio destaca cómo los políticos republicanos le han dado la espalda a la democracia estadounidense al permanecer en silencio durante un año completo, después de que Donald Trump intentó anular los resultados de las elecciones presidenciales difundiendo la "Gran Mentira". Estas mentiras desencadenaron un violento ataque al Capitolio de la nación, la muerte de varios estadounidenses y 140 policías heridos. El anuncio de 15 segundos se publicará tanto en español como en inglés.

 

“Los republicanos en el Congreso ayudaron a difundir la 'Gran Mentira' y han negado constantemente la verdadera escala de violencia en el Capitolio, comparando el asalto al edificio por parte de la muchedumbre, con una 'visita turística normal'. Un año después, todavía están ocultando la verdad sobre la insurrección, dando la espalda a nuestra democracia y apoyando a los extremistas e insurreccionistas. Es hora de líderes que no miren para otro lado y no abandonen este gran país”, dijo Rubén Gallego, presidente de BOLD PAC. “La mejor manera de luchar contra la campaña de desinformación republicana es descubrir la verdad sobre lo que sabían, cómo estaban involucrados y responsabilizarlos por sus acciones. Este es un tema importante para BOLD PAC porque las campañas de desinformación continúan apuntando a la comunidad latina, especialmente a través del uso de medios en español”.

 

Los políticos republicanos han demostrado que están decididos a hacer cualquier cosa para mantener el poder, incluida la difusión de mentiras sobre sus propias pérdidas electorales y redoblando las tácticas de supresión de votación, dirigidas a los votantes de color. Las familias trabajadoras merecen una mejor representación y un Congreso más diverso, que refleje los valores y las experiencias de todos los estadounidenses.


MIRA "ATAQUE" EXPOSICIÓN DE REPUBLICANOS NACIONALES

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. In 2026, voters will hold them accountable." ### CHC BOLD PAC , the campaign arm of the Hispanic Caucus, was founded in 2001 to increase Latino representation in Congress.

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.

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.

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.

As a longtime Member of the Natural Resources Committee, Raúl fought to protect our environment, public lands, and Indigenous communities, ensuring future generations could enjoy and benefit from them. His absence will be deeply felt in Congress and across our BOLD familia. Raúl was more than a public servant; he was a mentor, a proud Latino leader, and a champion for those who needed him most.

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.
