Tune in here to this Friday edition of the Brett Winterble Show! 

Today, we're joined by RNC Hispanic Communications Director Jaime Florez to discuss Hispanic Heritage Month and how President Trump’s policies are positively impacting the Hispanic community.

Florez begins by praising President Trump for his efforts to curb illegal immigration, specifically addressing those crossing the border unlawfully. He notes that, in some cases, up to 70 percent of migrants did not speak Spanish, suggesting that many were coming from regions outside Central America or Mexico. According to Florez, these individuals were competing for jobs that Hispanic Americans have held for the past forty to fifty years.

Toward the end of the conversation, Florez emphasizes that Hispanic immigrants who are in the United States legally take pride in celebrating their heritage—and, in doing so, contribute to that cultural richness for the country. He adds that legal Hispanic immigrants are also committed to defending America’s future. Florez believes that those who have gone through the legal immigration process often possess a deeper appreciation and love for the United States, sometimes even more so than those who may take that love for granted.
