Washington, D.C.–Latino Victory Fund announced the endorsement of Cindy Nava for New Mexico State Senate District 9.
Statement from Sindy M. Benavides, Latino Victory Fund President & CEO:
“Cindy is a staunch community leader and advocate for New Mexico’s working families and students. Throughout her career, she’s focused on improving the state’s education system to make the American Dream accessible to all, regardless of background. Cindy’s roots run deep in New Mexico’s and the American story—she’s the daughter of hard-working immigrants who came to this country seeking a better life. She knows what it’s like to work hard to achieve a better position in life, becoming the first Dreamer appointed by the White House as a Senior Policy Advisor at the Housing and Urban Development Department, where she worked tirelessly to expand affordable housing. Cindy is running to continue her public service for her community and to ensure others have the same opportunities she had to succeed. Her top policies will focus on issues that will strengthen her community — access to quality education, affordable housing, and quality, affordable healthcare. A win for Cindy would increase representation for Latinas in state legislatures and for New Mexico’s Hispanic community. Latino Victory Fund is proud to support Cindy to ensure she wins and hits these two important markers.”
