Small business owner and veteran Raquel Pacheco got a boost in her campaign to unseat Sen. Ileana Garcia. A first-of-its-kind veterans organization is backing her bid to represent Miami-Dade County’s Senate District 36.
VoteVets PAC is a national nonprofit that throws its weight behind “progressive veterans,” and lays claim to more than 1.5 million supporters.
“We at VoteVets are always so proud to see veterans committed to continuing their service after the uniform,” said Jon Soltz, Iraq War veteran and Chairman of the VoteVets PAC. “In these turbulent political times, our veterans, communities and country need leaders like Raquel who will continue to serve the nation and put the country first.”
