Maria Elvira Salazar
Florida Congresswoman-elect Maria Elvira Salazar is credited with coming up with the new Republican coalition’s tag. The award-winning journalist is the child of two Cuban immigrants who were forced to flee Cuba upon Fidel Castro’s rise to power. As a journalist, Salazar focused on reporting on the atrocities of socialist and communist governments. Now, the Rep.-elect is bringing that same fight to Congress.
We are the New Face of the @GOP!
So proud of my colleagues @Victoria_Spartz, the 1st immigrant from the former Soviet Union to ever serve in #Congress, & @NancyMace the very 1st woman to graduate from The Citadel.
