Trump Campaign Announces “Latino Americans for Trump” Coalition
June 09, 2024
Today, President Donald J. Trump announces “Latino Americans for Trump,” a coalition with notable members of Latino communities from across the country, leaders in all fields, including industry, trade, education, sports, faith, communications, and elected officials.
Under President Trump, the Latino American community saw a record low unemployment rate. Under Biden, Latino Americans have been left behind, burdened with higher prices, soaring interest rates, and lower wages. Inflation and the failure of Bidenomics will be a major issue facing Latinos in 2024, as well as high crime rates and the affordability of housing – issues where Biden has failed miserably.
Latinos favor immigration policies that allow the orderly and legal entry and formalization of immigrants to the United States, and, consequently, they disapprove of how millions have been allowed to cross the border illegally. Latino voters "overwhelmingly" trust President Trump over Biden on his approach to address border security and immigration.
"Latino Americans for Trump” stands unified in its support of President Trump and our members will be working tirelessly to spread his winning messages of a strong economy, lower prices, a secure border, and peace through strength at home and abroad.
“In 2020, we got more votes from Hispanic Americans than any Republican in more than 50 years, and we won the Texas border counties that no Republican candidate had won in more than a century! In 2024, we’re going to win an even larger share of the Hispanic American vote, setting all-time records for Republicans up and down the ballot.” – President Donald J. Trump
“Latino Americans are leaving the Democrat Party behind because they know that Joe Biden has failed. From skyrocketing inflation and unaffordable housing to violent crime and open borders, all Americans are worse off under Biden. The Republican Party is committed to forging longstanding relationships with the Latino American community – and the launch of ‘Latino Americans for Trump’ is just the beginning.” – Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Whatley and Co-Chairman Lara Trump
"President Trump understands the challenges Hispanic Americans are facing under the Biden Administration. Everything costs more. Our communities aren't safe. And the world is on fire. President Trump is not going to play petty politics. His focus is on rebuilding this country and making life better for you and your family.” — United States Senator Marco Rubio
"Growing up in a Cuban household taught me the importance of family, faith and the value of honest work. Under President Trump, Hispanics saw the lowest rate of unemployment in history, their small businesses boomed, prices were low, and jobs were abundant. Joe Biden has all but reversed that completely, which is why America needs to elect President Trump come November." — United States Senator Ted Cruz
“It was the honor of a lifetime to serve in the administration under President Trump standing firm against dictators and socialist regimes in Latin America. After four years of weakness under Joe Biden, Latino Americans need a second term of President Trump to restore our strength on the world stage and make Americans safe again.” – Ambassador Carlos Trujillo
“President Trump is the only man who can save America. He will secure our borders, quell inflation down, and bring stability back to the world. We must do all we can to help re-elect him.” — Arizona House of Representatives Majority Whip Teresa Martinez
"I am proud to endorse President Donald J. Trump. This is the most important election of our lives and America needs him more than ever. His leadership is curial for restoring our nation's prosperity and strength. Together we will make America Great Again, Again!" — Miami Dade County Commissioner Kevin Cabrera
"As Chair of the Hispanic Leadership Coalition, I proudly support President Donald Trump's campaign for President of the United States. José Martí said, 'There are two kinds of people: those who love and build and those who hate and destroy.' We are blessed to have President Trump, a builder who created prosperity, opportunity, and security for the Hispanic community and all Americans. Unlike Biden’s divisive and destructive agenda, Trump's leadership revives the American Dream with a focus on the values we cherish as Hispanics: faith, family, freedom, and work. I know his vision will lead us to a brighter, more secure future." — AFPI Hispanic Leadership Coalition Chairman Bob Unanue
"Working as a senior advisor in the White House, I saw first-hand President Trump's love for our Latino community. President Trump ensured Latinos, like me, could live the American dream with smart policies that led to 3 million more new Hispanic jobs, record-low unemployment and 600,000 Hispanics lifted out of poverty. He embraced our faith and family values by protecting our churches and giving parents power of their children's education. Let's bring his policies back to the White House so our community can thrive once again. ¡Viva President Trump! ...Y Adios Biden!" — White House Deputy Assistant to President Trump Jennifer Sevilla Korn
