Latinos con Biden will be the political home for Latinos who share the common goal of defeating Donald Trump and electing Vice President Joe Biden
Washington, D.C. — Today, Latino Victory launched Latinos con Biden, a bilingual virtual network for Latino supporters who are ready to defeat Donald Trump in November by building and rallying support for former Vice President Joe Biden.
As the first national Latino organization to endorse Biden for president, Latino Victory developed Latinos con Biden to harness the diverse Latino community’s electoral power in November. Created by Latinos for Latinos, Latinos con Biden will be a digital information hub where Latinos can access resources and information to help them organize their community and show their support for Biden. (The Latinos con Biden website can be found HERE.)
Latino Victory Fund endorsed Biden on February 20, 2020, two days before the Nevada Caucus. In a video response to Latino Victory Fund’s endorsement, Vice President Biden said:
“I’m incredibly honored to have the endorsement of Latino Victory Fund. Latinos are the future. They must have a voice, and as president, I will do all in my power to amplify that voice.
“I can’t tell you how much I appreciate the support of the Latino Victory Fund, one of the nation’s most important Latino political organizations that has helped elect candidates across the country from school boards all the way to the United States Senate.”
Latinos con Biden aims to convene Latino leaders, grassroots supporters, influencers, organizers, activists, first-time voters, and all Latinos who share the common goal of defeating Trump and electing Biden.
Mayra Macías, Latino Victory Executive Director:
“By creating Latinos con Biden, we’re opening up valuable entry points for Latinos who want to propel Vice President Biden to victory in the 2020 election. We know that historically, Latinos are the best self-organizers, and Latinos con Biden will provide tools to empower our community to organize with access and information in a collaborative, familial space. Latino Victory is ready to do our part in the Latino community’s fight for the soul of our nation.”
Nathalie Rayes, Latino Victory Board Member:
“We, at Latino Victory, are proud to have been the first national Latino organization to endorse Vice President Biden. We know Vice President Biden will beat Donald Trump in November, and we are committed to ensuring that Latinos turn out the vote and are a consequential part of his victory.”
