      CHC BOLD PAC Endorses New Slate of Latina Candidates 


Washington D.C. - As a part of its commitment to expanding Latino representation in both the U.S. House and Senate, today CHC BOLD PAC is endorsing three candidates in key districts – Michelle Vallejo TX-15 (83.3% Latino population), Allyson Muñiz Damikolas in CA-40 (24.2% Latino population), and Marlene Galán-Woods AZ-01 (17.2% Latino population). 


BOLD PAC is proud to endorse these three Latina Democrats who have been fearless advocates for Latino working families and will fight to protect reproductive rights, increase access to affordable healthcare, and create good-paying jobs. CHC BOLD PAC Chairwoman Linda Sánchez released the following statement on these endorsements:


“As the daughter of immigrants from Mexico, Michelle Vallejo was raised to fight for working families and to make sure that high-quality healthcare is affordable for all. Michelle has lived through many of the same tremendous challenges faced by so many South Texas families,” said ​​CHC BOLD PAC Chairwoman Linda Sánchez. “Michelle had to travel across the border into Mexico for medical care for her mother who passed away at the age of 46 after battling MS for 15 years. That’s why Michelle’s leadership is so important and needed at a moment when so many South Texans families are uninsured. We’re thrilled to support Michelle Vallejo to represent Texas’ 15th District. ”


“BOLD PAC is proud to endorse Allyson Muñiz Damikolas in CA-40. Allyson is a proud Latina who has come from a long line of Mexican Americans who served in the military and resided in Southern California for generations. Having grown up in a family that struggled with food insecurity, she prioritized public education and understands why it is so important for our children to succeed,” said CHC BOLD PAC Chairwoman Linda Sánchez. “She will fight to make sure everyone has equal access to affordable healthcare and to protect reproductive rights. We look forward to fighting alongside Allyson in Congress”.


“As the daughter of immigrants from Cuba, Marlene Galán-Woods is committed to fighting tirelessly in defense of individual rights and liberties,” said CHC BOLD PAC Chairwoman Linda Sánchez. “As a former broadcast journalist, she spent her career holding the corrupt and powerful accountable. She is a 35-year Arizona resident and mother of five who truly understands the issues that matter to working families -- like expanding access to quality education, defending a woman's right to choose, and preserving our democracy. BOLD PAC is proud to endorse Marlene Galán-Woods in AZ-01.”


ABOUT MICHELLE VALLEJO


Michelle Vallejo is a small business owner, a community advocate, and was the Democratic nominee in this district last cycle. She comes from a big family of farm workers, immigrants, and entrepreneurs. Michelle deeply understands the importance of access to affordable healthcare. Her mother, Maribel, passed away in 2010 after fighting Multiple Sclerosis for 15 years. Michelle would often have to travel with her mother, across the border into Mexico, for her mother to obtain medical care due to the lack of options in South Texas. That experience led Michelle to fight to increase medical coverage for South Texans. Michelle and her father own and operate Pulga Los Portales, a flea market, which has helped dozens of working-class entrepreneurs start and run their own businesses for nearly 25 years.
Prior to serving as state senator, he was appointed to the Omaha Public Schools Board in 2013. He received his MS in education from Pace University and served as an Americorps fellow through Teach for America in Brooklyn. In 2008, Vargas was awarded “Most Outstanding Teacher” while working with Teach for America.

Allyson Damikolas is an engineer, mother of three, and Tustin school board trustee. Rooted in California, her father is a US Marine veteran and her mother was a union cafeteria worker. Determined to rise from financial instability, Allyson got an engineering degree and joined an environmental consulting firm. When Allyson’s daughters faced a complex medical condition, she paused her career to advocate for them, battling insurance companies to get the treatments they needed. Allyson became the first Latina in over 30 years to join the Tustin Unified School District board. She directed resources toward under-achieving students while prioritizing student and educator mental health.

Estamos encantados de apoyar a Michelle Vallejo para que represente al Distrito 15 de Texas”.

Michelle a menudo tenía que viajar con su madre, al otro lado de la frontera con México, para que su madre obtuviera atención médica debido a la falta de opciones en el sur de Texas.

Allyson se convirtió en la primera latina en más de 30 años, en unirse a la junta del Distrito Escolar Unificado de Tustin. Dirigió los recursos hacia los estudiantes de bajo rendimiento mientras priorizaba la salud mental de los estudiantes y educadores.
