During the 2022 midterms, Voces de la Frontera Action poured its resources into mobilizing support for Democrats at the ballot box, with volunteer members directly contacting nearly 30,000 voters in their network and reaching 30,000 more through phone-banking and door-knocking, according to the organization. In 2020, Voces supported Biden’s presidential run.

Now, the group has turned its efforts toward promoting the Uninstructed campaign with mailers, door-knocking and social media promotion.

    It’s not a matter of whether they’re right, it’s a direct contradiction to your insinuation that this is a fake sentiment coming from “outside the community”. And those weren’t even the Latino only congressmembers who objected to it.

    Maybe cool off on the “he’s lying” when you’re trying to claim that a pretty well recognized anger over a Democratic president adopting conservative framing and policy for the border is astroturfing using “I had a friend” as your justification.

      Yeah, that’s honestly a fair point. I assumed that 100% of serious immigration advocates would recognize it for the bullshit that it is, so that feeding into this transparent grandstanding mythology about what Biden said and meant and neglecting to observe his actual record on the issues would be a tell of someone who wasn’t a real advocate for immigrants, but apparently that’s not true. Live and learn, I guess.
