Loretta Sanchez | California
Catherine Cortez Masto and Loretta Sanchez represent distinct opportunities to become the first-ever Latina Senators in the history of the U.S. Senate. Their campaigns act as a catalyst to directly address the lack of Latinas in the Senate and disproportionate makeup of Latinas in U.S. politics.
“Latina Democrats currently hold only seven seats in Congress, and in the history of the U.S. Senate, there has never been a Latina Senator. It is time to break these glass ceilings,” said PODERPAC Founding Honorary Board Member Congresswoman Linda Sánchez. “I am so proud of these strong women who have the courage to run for elected office and will fight for American families."

PODER PAC has restructured to focus our resources on increasing the number of Latinas in Congress. We are now a multi-candidate federal PAC and are no longer supporting local races.
PODER PAC was created in order to empower Latinas who want to run for office and make a difference in their communities. Many of the women who we have supported were running for the first time and we want to celebrate the courage and dedication it took for them to run for elected office.
The 2010 Census underscores that Latinas will play a central role in the future political and economic development of this country. Your time, contacts, and financial contributions are needed to ensure that Latinas have an equal opportunity to govern and make decisions that impact our Nation. Join us!
