ABOUT CHC BOLD PAC ENDORSED CANDIDATE ANDREA SALINAS
For over two decades, Andrea Salinas — a Latina working mom, state representative, and daughter of a Mexican immigrant and Vietnam War veteran — has delivered transformative policies that have shaped the lives of all families in Oregon. She fought to pass the nation’s most progressive paid family leave bill. She also helped pass a bill to increase the transparency of drug pricing so that families aren’t choosing between food and prescription drugs and a bill curbing carbon pollution and phasing out dirty coal. Andrea was instrumental in passing the Oregon’s Reproductive Health Equity Act, the strongest reproductive rights law in the country.
She is running a historic campaign and was one of the highest ranking Latino elected officials in Oregon’s history, having served as Majority Whip and Assistant Majority Leader in the Oregon House of Representatives. Oregon has never had a Latino or Latina elected to Congress and the 6th Congressional District – which is 21 percent Hispanic – has the opportunity to make history this year.
Andrea is the leading woman and person of color in this race. More than 80 elected Democrats, progressive organizations, and community leaders have endorsed Andrea, including Governor Kate Brown, Congresswoman Bonamici (OR-01), CHC BOLD PAC, The Oregonian, Planned Parenthood Action Fund, Service Employees International Union (SEIU), and League of Conservation Voters Action Fund (LCV).
