.julito77: The most Latino Congress ever is more progressive — and more MAGA.
But Luna is, perhaps, the most glaring example that the election of more Latinas and Latinos to Congress isn’t just a boon to the progressive movement or to Democrats. According to the NALEO analysis, 12 Latino Republicans will serve in the House, five of them new members. Juan Ciscomani will serve as Arizona’s first Latino Republican representative, and Lori Chavez-DeRemer will be the first Latina to represent Oregon in the House of Representatives.
, then you shouldn’t be. There were plenty of Latinos and Latinas who instantly sided with the authoritarian xenophobe, and the MAGA movement has always had Latino support. Their support might seem counterintuitive to those who believe Latinos would turn against Trump, but there has always been a minority of Latinos who view fellow Latinos and Latinas as the “other.” What MAGA has done is give these voices a platform that not only amplifies such extremist views but also provides cover for their white nationalist allies. Not much separates Luna from disgraced Proud Boy and Afro-Latino.
