Washington, D.C. - Today, CHC BOLD PAC Chairman Ruben Gallego issued the following statement addressing Republicans’ vaccine misinformation and its harm to the Latino community: 

 

“The danger Republicans are perpetuating by spreading vaccine misinformation has harmed the Latino community dramatically,” said BOLD PAC Chairman Ruben Gallego. “Threatening public schools with funding cuts and encouraging people to take a drug designed for horses puts the community at great risk. The best way to combat misinformation is by ensuring Hispanics and other communities of color have access to accurate information and hold Republicans like Rep. Herrell and Rep. Van Duyne accountable now and next November.”

 

Rep. Yvette Herrell (NM-02), whose district is over half Latino, has put the lives of New Mexicans in danger by encouraging the use of the horse deworming drug Ivermectin as a treatment for COVID-19. The Center for Disease Control (CDC) has strongly advised not to use this as a form of treatment, yet Herrell prefers to push the use of Ivermectin and play politics rather than care for the health and safety of her constituents. 

 

The Hispanic community has been subject to widespread vaccine-related misinformation on social media platforms in Spanish. But some Republicans like Beth Van Duyne (TX-24) go beyond the misinformation campaigns. Van Duyne has introduced legislation that will put communities in danger by cutting funding for schools that require students to wear masks in a time where public schools and students need all the support they can get, especially Latinos and other students of color. 

 

Republicans are targeting Latinos with vaccine misinformation and taking advantage of Spanish language media to do so and provide a stark contrast to Democrats and the Biden Administration's vaccine efforts. Latino communities won’t forget which party tried to harm them and which party provided vaccine access to them so they could protect themselves and their families.

Yvette Herrell y Beth Van Duyne Perpetúan Desinformación sobre Vacunas 


Las congresistas republicanas prefieren jugar a la política en detrimento de la salud y la seguridad de sus electores

Washington, D.C. – Hoy el presidente de CHC BOLD PAC, Rubén Gallego, emitió la siguiente declaración abordando la desinformación de los republicanos sobre las vacunas y el daño que causa a la comunidad latina:

 

“El peligro que los republicanos están perpetuando al difundir información errónea sobre las vacunas, ha afectado dramáticamente a la comunidad latina”, dijo el presidente de BOLD PAC, Rubén Gallego. “Amenazar a las escuelas públicas con recortes de fondos y alentar a las personas a tomar un medicamento diseñado para caballos, pone a la comunidad en gran riesgo. La mejor manera de combatir la desinformación es asegurándose de que los hispanos y otras comunidades de color tengan acceso a información precisa y hacer responsables por sus acciones a los republicanos como las congresistas Herrell y Van Duyne, ahora y el próximo noviembre”.

 

La congresista Yvette Herrell (NM-02), cuyo distrito es más de la mitad latino, ha puesto en peligro la vida de los habitantes de Nuevo México al alentar el uso del medicamento antiparasitario para caballos Ivermectina, como tratamiento para el COVID-19. El Centro para el Control de Enfermedades (CDC) ha recomendado enfáticamente no usar este medicamento como una forma de tratamiento. Sin embargo, Herrell prefiere seguir promocionando el uso de Ivermectina y jugar a la política, en lugar de preocuparse por la salud y la seguridad de sus electores.

 

La comunidad hispana ha estado sujeta a información errónea relacionada con las vacunas, en las plataformas de redes sociales en español. Pero algunos republicanos como Beth Van Duyne (TX-24) van más allá de las campañas de desinformación. Van Duyne ha introducido una legislación que pondrá en peligro a las comunidades, al recortar los fondos para las escuelas que requieren que los estudiantes usen máscaras. Justo en el momento en que tanto las escuelas públicas y los estudiantes, necesitan todo el apoyo que puedan obtener, especialmente los latinos y otros estudiantes de color.

 

Los republicanos tienen a los latinos como blanco de su desinformación sobre las vacunas y se están aprovechando de los medios de comunicación en español para hacerlo, lo cual marca un fuerte contraste con el trabajo que están haciendo los demócratas y los esfuerzos de vacunación de la Administración Biden. Las comunidades latinas no olvidarán cuál es el partido que intentó hacerles daño y cuál es el partido les dio acceso a las vacunas, para que pudieran protegerse a sí mismos y a sus familias.

TRUMP’S FIRST MONTH HAS ONLY MADE LIFE MORE EXPENSIVE FOR AMERICANS

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.
