WASHINGTON -- The UnidosUS Action Fund will announce a slate of U.S. House and Senate endorsements ahead of the 2020 General Election on Tuesday, August 4th at 7:00 p.m. EST. UnidosUS Action Fund President Janet Murguía will host a live discussion with Senator Catherine Cortez Masto (NV), Chairwoman of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC), and Representative Tony Cárdenas (CA - 29), Chairman of CHC BOLD PAC, to discuss the importance of getting these candidates elected to Congress.

“The leaders that we are endorsing today will work hard to advance a robust Latino policy agenda,” said Murguía. “Given the Administration’s constant attacks on Latinos and other communities, it is even more imperative to have elected leaders that will work tirelessly to ensure that Latinos earn their rightful place in America.”

“In order to take back the Senate and build on our House majority, we need Democratic candidates to energize Latino voters across the country,” said Rep. Tony Cárdenas, Chairman of CHC BOLD PAC. “That’s why BOLD PAC is honored to join DSCC Chairwoman, Catherine Cortez Masto and UnidosUS President, Janet Murguía, to uplift candidates and incumbents who understand the importance of Latino voters and what’s at stake for Latino families. Their leadership in Congress will protect health care for millions of Americans and build an inclusive economy that works for everyone.”
