Choco was a Latina powerhouse, trailblazer and a staunch advocate for the Latino community, Women and Democrats. A Charter Member of PODER PAC, Choco wholeheartedly understood and supported the mission of building a bench of Latina candidates.

She left this world far too early, but certainly made a tremendous impact while she was here. We pay tribute to her memory and work and will miss her dearly.

Rest in Peace Our Dear Friend and Sister.

Love, The PODER PAC Board
