Republicans Are Using Venezuelan Refugees, Families and Children, as Political Puppets to Distract from Their Lack of Solutions 


Politicizing immigration is from the same failed GOP playbook they used during the 2018 election



Washington, D.C. - Today CHC BOLD PAC Chairman Ruben Gallego issued the following statement addressing Republicans' tactics to politicize immigration by sending asylum seekers to the Vice President’s residence and Martha’s Vineyard at taxpayer expense:


“Using Venezuelan refugees, including families and children, who have fled communism, violence and oppression as
political puppets is a despicable Republican tactic. It’s inhumane. Republican Governors DeSantis and Abbott as well as Latino Republicans are creating confusion to divide the country and distract from their lack of solutions on the top issues for working families,” said BOLD PAC Chairman, Ruben Gallego. “This is the same tired, failed GOP playbook. Every time an election comes around, Republicans try to politicize immigration. They tried this in 2018 with caravans and it didn’t work for them – Democrats won by the largest margin in midterm history.”


Republicans like Rep.
Marco Rubio, Rep. Maria Elvira Salazar and Rep. Carlos A. Giménez, — whose families are immigrants — are being disingenuous. While they oppose the Venezuelan regime in the name of helping the Venezuelan people, when it comes time to help those Venezuelan families who make it to our shores and are seeking asylum from that regime, they turn their backs on them. 


The hypocrisy of Florida Republicans on immigration is astounding. They don’t fight for humanitarian relief and they even voted against the President’s request for record funding for the Department of Homeland Security. And yet, they continue pushing the same anti-immigration and discriminatory message of the Trump administration, painting immigrant children and asylum seekers as violent criminals.


Rep. Darren Soto (FL-9)


“Using human beings as pawns for political gain is disgraceful. By sending Venezuelan and Colombian refugees to Martha’s Vineyard, Governor Ron DeSantis and Lieutenant Governor Jeanette Nuñez are building on their discriminatory treatment of migrants. Democrats will continue working to deliver solutions in the form of Venezuela TPS and protections for Dreamers and farmworkers. Hispanic voters are taking note.”


Working families deserve representatives who represent their values and fight for their values, and not Republicans’ embrace of hate, and their anti-immigrant, anti-worker, and job-killing agenda.

Los republicanos están utilizando a refugiados Venezolanos, familias y niños como sus títeres políticos, para desviar la atención ante su falta de soluciones


Este es la misma vieja estrategia que el Partido Republicano uso en las elecciones de 2018 con las caravanas y fracasaron



Washington, D.C. - Hoy el presidente de CHC BOLD PAC, Rubén Gallego, emitió la siguiente declaración sobre las tácticas de los republicanos para politizar la inmigración, enviando solicitantes de asilo a la residencia de la Vicepresidente y a Martha's Vineyard, a expensas de los contribuyentes:


“Utilizar a refugiados venezolanos, incluidas familias y niños, que han huido del comunismo, la violencia y la opresión como títeres políticos es una táctica republicana despreciable. Es inhumano. Los gobernadores republicanos DeSantis y Abbott, así como los republicanos latinos, están creando confusión para dividir al país y desviar la atención ante su falta de soluciones para los principales problemas de las familias trabajadoras”,
dijo el presidente de BOLD PAC, Ruben Gallego. “Este es el mismo libro de jugadas republicano viejo y fallido. Cada vez que llega una elección, los republicanos tratan de politizar la inmigración. Lo intentaron en 2018 con las caravanas y no les funcionó: los demócratas ganaron con el mayor margen en la historia de las elecciones de medio término”.


Republicanos como el representante Marco Rubio, la representante María Elvira Salazar y el representante Carlos A. Giménez, cuyas familias son inmigrantes, están siendo falsos. Si bien se oponen al régimen venezolano en nombre de ayudar al pueblo venezolano, cuando llega el momento de ayudar a las familias venezolanas que llegan a nuestras costas y buscan asilo huyendo de ese régimen, les dan la espalda.


La hipocresía de los republicanos de Florida sobre la inmigración es asombrosa. No luchan por la ayuda humanitaria e incluso votaron en contra de la solicitud del Presidente para más fondos para el Departamento de Seguridad Nacional. Y sin embargo, continúan impulsando el mismo mensaje antiinmigración y discriminatorio de la administración Trump, pintando a los niños inmigrantes y solicitantes de asilo como criminales violentos.


Congresista Darren Soto (FL-9)


“Usar seres humanos como peones para obtener ganancias políticas es vergonzoso. Al enviar refugiados venezolanos y colombianos a Martha's Vineyard, el gobernador Ron DeSantis y la vicegobernadora Jeanette Nuñez están ampliando su trato discriminatorio hacia los migrantes. Los demócratas continuarán trabajando para brindar soluciones en forma de TPS para Venezuela y protecciones para Dreamers y trabajadores agrícolas. Los votantes hispanos están tomando nota”.


Las familias trabajadoras merecen representantes que representen sus valores y luchen por sus valores y no la aceptación del odio de los republicanos y su agenda anti inmigrante, anti obrera y anti empleos.
