Not a single Latina had ever served in Congress until I was already in college. And today, I'm still the only Latina serving in the U.S. Senate. Our government should look like the people it represents - that's why I'm fighting so our Latino community has a seat at the table.
@SenCortezMasto So you are color of skin and not content of character
@SenCortezMasto Nevada needs a competent Latina in the U.S. Senate...definitely not Cortez Masto.
@SenCortezMasto Should´nt comptence be the first requirement vs. race?
@SenCortezMasto Other than being a Latina, what are your qualifications? What can you bring to the table to help those you represent? When I say "those you represent" I mean ALL the people regardless of race, sex and religion?
@SenCortezMasto No , it only should be qualified people who deserve being there not because you are Hispanic and based on some % .
@SenCortezMasto Why do you devide us under the name of "race"? If those who are in this case, are Latino and the community wants them. They would be there! As of right now, those who have run and lost. Is not because of "race" but, rather their qualifications of what (We the people) want.
@SenCortezMasto Our government should represent the best and the brightest of our Country, we don’t care what they look like.
@SenCortezMasto Have you ever fought for their voting rights? The people who are represented deserve to vote for the people who represent them. When was the last time you brought that up?
@SenCortezMasto Are you really defending Senator Menendez after he went to the Caribbean for years to have sex with under-age prostitutes and is now in his 2nd international espionage scandal?
@SenCortezMasto Yet justice Sotomayer has been serving longer than you so there’s that. Stop making things about race I mean seriously
