COLORADO LATINO VOTERS CITE CIVIL RIGHTS

Colorado Newsline reports over 60% of Latino voters in Colorado think their civil rights have become less secure since President Donald Trump began his second term, according to survey results released Thursday from the Colorado Latino Agenda and UnidosUS.

That number is higher among women, at about 71%, but lower among men, at about 58%. There is also a stark partisan split, with 80% of Democratic Latino voters feeling their civil rights are eroding but just 26% of Republicans who think the same.

“They see immigrant families being used as scapegoats and political props, even as those same workers keep Colorado’s farms, restaurants and resorts running,” Alex Sánchez, CEO of Voces Unidas de las Montañas, said during a briefing.
