Today, we remember the 23 lives lost, 23 more hurt, and an unquantifiable amount of damage to our communities done from El Paso, Texas.

Through the pain, we honor their lives – our hearts are with you, Sun City.

We express significant concern for the health of the Latino community nationwide, noting Latinos will be among the most affected by the Trump administration’s decision to delay implementation of methane pollution standards for another twelve months. 🏭💨 https://loom.ly/mGQpwGE

Last week Hector Sanchez Barba along with multiple national Latino leaders met with Rep. Jeffries to discuss the urgent concerns of Latino and immigrant workers.

Together, we're fighting to protect the rights, wages, and dignity of every worker- and demanding bold leadership to do the same.

We are facing the most brazen rollback of civil rights in generations. The same forces that used violence against John Lewis and are back, with billionaires’ backers and authoritarian ambition.

Join us July 17 because #GoodTroubleLivesOn

A friendly reminder on this 4th of July that patriotism means PROTECTING our democracy, NOT DISMANTLING it.

🚨 This "Big Ugly Bill" will force millions of people to lose health care, slashes SNAP benefits, & adds massive funding for ICE raids. Latinos must remain civically engaged and show up strong at the polls and elect representatives that support our communities.

Health care across the country is in DANGER. If #PlannedParenthood is “defunded,” nearly 200 health centers could close, and more than 1.1M patients could lose access to care. We are for PP & will do everything we can to protect our bodies, our lives, our futures. #ImForPP

President and CEO, Hector Sanchez Barba, issued the following statement in response to today’s Supreme Court ruling: https://www.mifamiliavota.org/supreme-courts-ruling-gutting-federal-district-courts-nationwide-injunctions-weakens-birthright-citizenship-and-all-fundamental-rights-in-america/

🚨 BREAKING: Today’s ruling will create uneven application of the law on basic rights, while empowering Trump's administration with a dangerous green light to target and deport U.S.-born children. This is an attack on our Constitution, our democracy and our families.
