CHC BOLD PAC Launches Ads On Gabe Evans’ and Matt Gunderson’s Lies and Harmful Policies That Will Hurt Working Families 

As Part of the “Our Lucha War Room” initiative, CHC BOLD PAC Launched a $833,000 Bilingual Ad Campaign to Expose Evan’s and Gunderson’s Dangerous Agendas

 

Washington D.C. -  "Our Lucha War Room" is exposing MAGA extremists like Gabe Evans (CO-08) and Matt Gunderson (CA-49), who shamelessly mislead our communities for their own personal gain.


As part of a $833,000 ad bilingual buy, BOLD PAC is launching ads to expose the dangerous agenda of Gabe Evans and Matt Gunderson and their impact on working families. This initiative will continue to combat misinformation and hold MAGA liars accountable for their extremist, anti-Latino agenda that seeks to undermine and devastate our communities.


MAGA extremists Gabe Evans and Matt Gunderson continue to prove that they only look out for themselves, ignoring the safety and well-being of our working families. Their reckless ideas and radical views have no place in Congress, and their candidacy poses a clear risk to our communities.


“Our communities deserve better than these dangerous extremists,” said CHC BOLD PAC Executive Director Victoria McGroary. “Gabe Evans and Matt Gunderson have made it clear they care about one thing and one thing only: themselves. Their selfish, out-of-touch agendas are a threat to hardworking families. Voters deserve leaders who will fight for them, not these political opportunists looking out for their own interests.”

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.

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.
