We were proud to join
@AOC
&
@SenSchumer
in announcing this critical program. Latinos have died from
#COVID19
at twice the average and need immediate and long-term relief to move forward from this disaster.
Rep.
@AOC
and Sen. Chuck Schumer announce funeral benefits for low-income New Yorkers who have died from COVID.
"Families also are having to pay for the storage of the bodies of their own loved ones. This is wrong."
Many of the more than 4,600 deaths attributed to
#HurricaneMaria
were due to a lack of medical care. Here's what medical experts say is needed to save lives.
One year ago, Hurricane Maria struck Puerto Rico. Many lives were lost—including many due to power blackouts.
That's why we've partnered with
@DirectRelief
,
@HispanicFed
, and
@SolarFound
to ensure critical facilities never have to shut their doors.

Overtime pay. A day of rest. A safe and healthy workplace. These sacred labor protections are denied to New York’s farmworkers. This is wrong and must change. Read our latest op-ed w/

Answer: Invest in the trusted & culturally competent community orgs who are in the neighborhoods, helping w/ the vaccine, rent/food asssitance, etc.
African-Americans make up 32% of our population in Maryland but make up 39% of our COVID-19 deaths. I'm committed to doing everything I can to improve vaccine equity & overcome vaccine hesitancy in communities of color. My Q&A in today's

One candidate for

that we heard from today was
@AndrewYang
.
Mr. Yang started by saying that he's "the child of immigrants, & remembers thinking we had to make our own way. My goal is to try to use the city resources to solve our problems as efficiently as possible."
The
#HFMayoralForum
is connecting some of the top candidates running for NYC Mayor with non-profits that serve the Latino community in the city.
With the
#NYCPrimaries
around the corner – it's essential that non-profits & the Latino community hear from mayoral candidates.

It’s been two years since Hurricane Maria devastated Puerto Rico. Now Puerto Ricans are dealing with yet another natural disaster. A 6.4 magnitude earthquake hit the island today. Go to to learn more about how we are responding to this emergency.
As one of the recipients of this gift, HF will be able to increase the impact of our COVID Emergency Relief Fund which has stabilized Latino-led orgs across the country--groups providing front-line resources to communities most impacted by the pandemic. 🙏🏽
Undocumented immigrants are mothers who make this country home for their loved ones.
It’s time we care for them by urging Congress to act now and create a pathway to citizenship to protect them from deportation and keep their families together.
