Washington, D.C. - Today, CHC BOLD PAC Chairman Ruben Gallego and Members released the following statement regarding Politico’s leaked draft majority opinion in the Supreme Court case Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization that would overturn Roe v. Wade. 


“The GOP's war against women could soon hit a new low. Decades of Republican attacks have left abortion rights hanging by a thread in the U.S. After two stolen Supreme Court seats and a series of draconian anti-choice state laws, the time to fight back is now. A woman’s right to choose is sacred and we will make sure Republicans are reminded loud and clear in every polling place across the nation this November,” said CHC BOLD PAC Chairman Ruben Gallego. 


“We will keep fighting until every person, no matter what they look like or where they live, has the freedom to make decisions about their own bodies. That’s why we need to elect strong Democrats who represent our values and will be fearless advocates who will never stop fighting for reproductive rights.”


CHC BOLD PAC Board Member Congresswoman Sylvia Garcia (TX-29) released the following statement:


“This is not surprising, Republicans are already trying to prohibit people from accessing abortion across state lines, showing there’s no limit to their despicable attempts to control women’s reproductive freedoom. Everybody should be able to make their own personal health care decisions that impact their lives, health, and futures,” said Congresswoman Sylvia Garcia. “Republican abortion bans are systemic discrimination in action and the impact if Roe v. Wade is overturned will fall hardest on Latinas and other women of color who already face discriminatory obstacles to health care.”


CHC BOLD PAC Board Member Congresswoman Linda Sanchez (CA-38) released the following statement:


“I am deeply alarmed by the Supreme Court’s draft opinion to overturn Roe v. Wade,” said Congresswoman Linda Sánchez. “If true, this decision will turn back decades of progress for women across the country – especially Latinas and people of color who already face discriminatory obstacles to health care. Personal health care decisions impact our health, lives, and futures. Those decisions should be left to every woman to decide for herself – and they should be made in the doctor’s office, not the courtroom.”

Washington, D.C. – Hoy el presidente de CHC BOLD PAC, Rubén Gallego y otros miembros del grupo emitieron la siguiente declaración sobre el borrador de opinión mayoritaria filtrado a Politico en el caso de la Corte Suprema Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization que anularía Roe v. Wade.

“La guerra del Partido Republicano contra las mujeres pronto podría tocar fondo. Décadas de ataques republicanos han dejado el derecho al aborto colgando de un hilo en los Estados Unidos. Después de dos escaños robados en la Corte Suprema y una serie de leyes estatales draconianas contra el aborto, ahora es el momento de contraatacar. El derecho de una mujer a elegir es sagrado y nos aseguraremos de que esto se les recuerde claramente a los republicanos en todos los puntos de votación de la nación, este noviembre”, dijo el presidente de CHC BOLD PAC, Rubén Gallego.

“Seguiremos luchando hasta que cada persona, sin importar su apariencia o dónde viva, tenga la libertad de tomar decisiones sobre su propio cuerpo y su propia vida. Es por eso que necesitamos elegir demócratas fuertes que representen nuestros valores y que sean defensores incansables que nunca dejarán de luchar por los derechos reproductivos”.

La Congresista y miembro de la junta de CHC BOLD PAC, Sylvia Garcia (TX-29), emitió la siguiente declaración:

“Esto no es sorprendente, los republicanos ya están tratando de prohibir que las personas accedan al aborto a través de las fronteras estatales, lo que demuestra que no hay límite para sus despreciables intentos de controlar la libertad reproductiva de las mujeres. Todos deberían poder tomar sus propias decisiones sobre la atención médica que impacta sus vidas y su futuro”, dijo la Congresista Sylvia Garcia. “Las prohibiciones republicanas al aborto son un discrimen sistemático en acción y el impacto si se anula Roe v. Wade recaerá más sobre las latinas y otras mujeres de grupos minoritarios que ya enfrentan obstáculos discriminatorios en la atención médica”.

La Congresista y miembro de la junta de CHC BOLD PAC, Linda Sánchez (CA-38), emitió la siguiente declaración:

“Estoy profundamente alarmada por el documento de opinión de la Corte Suprema para anular Roe v. Wade”, dijo la congresista Linda Sánchez. “Si es cierto, esta decisión hará retroceder décadas de progreso para las mujeres en todo el país, especialmente las latinas y las personas de color que ya enfrentan obstáculos discriminatorios en la atención médica. Las decisiones personales sobre el cuidado de la salud afectan nuestra salud, nuestras vidas y nuestro futuro. Esas decisiones deben dejarse en manos de cada mujer para que las decida por sí misma, y ​​deben tomarse en el consultorio del médico, no en la sala del tribunal”.

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.

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

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.
