Tres latinas pelean posiciones en el Congreso y logran apoyo del BOLD PAC

Original Article: La Opinion 08/7/2023


Una empresaria, una ingeniera y una periodista latinas compiten por una posición en el Congreso de Estados Unidos y han logrado el respaldo del BOLD PAC, el brazo electoral del Caucus Hispano del Congreso (CHC).


Las demócratas Michelle Vallejo, Allyson Muñiz Damikolas y Marlene Galán-Woods buscan posiciones en Texas, California y Arizona, respectivamente, en cuyos distritos hay un destacado porcentaje de población latina.


El nuevo grupo que el BOLD PAC respalda es parte de la estrategia de la representante Linda Sánchez (California), presidenta del grupo, quien busca aumentar la representación de mujeres en el Congreso, indicó una portavoz.


Vallejo busca el triunfo en el Distrito 15 de Texas, donde el BOLD PAC reporta un 83.3% de población latina; Muñiz Damikolas en el Distrito 40, que cuenta con un 24.2% población latina, mientras Galán-Woods se lanzó por el Distrito 01 de Arizona, donde hay un 17.2% población latina.


“BOLD PAC se enorgullece de respaldar a estas tres demócratas latinas que han sido incansables defensoras de las familias trabajadoras latinas y lucharán para proteger los derechos reproductivos,

aumentar el acceso a atención médica de bajo costo y crear empleos bien pagados”, destacó el grupo en exclusiva a este diario.


Para el nuevo ciclo electoral, BOLD PAC ha respaldado a ocho candidatos latinos, de los cuales cinco son mujeres.


Quién es Michelle Vallejo


Michelle Vallejo es una pequeña empresaria, quien ya ha sido candidata demócrata. Nació en el seno de una familia de trabajadores agrícolas, inmigrantes y empresarios, se reporta, por lo que ella “comprende la importancia del acceso a una atención médica de bajo costo”.


Entre los motivos que la empujaron a dar un paso adicional a favor a su comunidad se encuentra la experiencia de que su madre, Maribel, falleció en 2010 después de luchar durante 15 años contra una esclerosis múltiple, pero para recibir atención Michelle viajaba con su madre a México, ante la falta de opciones en Texas.


Además, Michelle y su padre son dueños de Pulga Los Portales, un mercado que ha ayudado a empresarios de clase trabajadora para iniciar y administrar sus propios negocios.


“Como hija de inmigrantes de México, Michelle Vallejo fue criada para luchar por las familias trabajadoras y para asegurarse de que la atención médica de alta calidad sea asequible para todos”, dijo la presidenta de CHC BOLD PAC, Linda Sánchez. “Estamos encantados de apoyar a Michelle Vallejo para que represente al Distrito 15 de Texas”.


Quién es Allyson Muñiz Damikolas


Muñiz Damikolas es ingeniera, madre de tres hijos y administradora de la junta escolar de Tustin; es hija de un veterano de la Marina de los Estados Unidos y su madre era trabajadora sindical de una cafetería.


Como ingeniera se unió a una empresa de consultoría ambiental, pero tuvo que hacer una pausa profesional cuando sus hijas enfrentaron una condición médica compleja, obligándola a enfrentar a las compañías de seguros para lograr los tratamientos médicos.


Otro de sus logros es haberse convertido en la primera latina, en más de 30 años, en unirse a la junta del Distrito Escolar Unificado de Tustin, donde ha ayudado a dirigir los recursos hacia los estudiantes de bajo rendimiento, pero también con un enfoque sobre la salud mental de estudiantes y educadores.


“Allyson es una orgullosa latina que proviene de una larga línea de mexicoamericanos que sirvieron en el ejército y han vivido en el sur de California durante generaciones. Habiendo crecido en una familia que luchaba contra la inseguridad alimentaria, priorizó la educación pública y entiende por qué es tan importante para que nuestros niños tengan éxito”, dijo Sánchez.


Quién es Marlene Galán-Woods


Marlene Galán-Woods reside en Arizona desde hace años, fue periodista de televisión y es madre de cinco hijos e hija de padres cubanos.


Galán-Woods formó parte del comité de transición de la gobernadora Katie Hobbs, además de que con su esposo fundó Mesa Arts Academy dentro de Boys & Girls Clubs of the East Valley.


“Como hija de inmigrantes de Cuba, Marlene Galán-Woods está comprometida a luchar incansablemente por la defensa de los derechos y libertades individuales”, dijo Sánchez. “Como ex reportera de televisión, pasó su carrera haciendo responsables a los corruptos y poderosos por sus acciones. Ella ha vivido en Arizona por más de 35 años y como madre de cinco hijos, realmente comprende los problemas que importan a las familias trabajadoras, como ampliar el acceso a una educación de calidad, defender el derecho de la mujer a elegir y preservar nuestra democracia”.
