00:00Wow, you all look wonderful, beautiful from here, look at that crowd.
00:06Good evening everyone, good evening America!
00:14My name is Vanessa Fora.
00:16I was born in Peru and my family migrated legally to the United States when I was nine years old.
00:30Like millions of legal immigrants, my family didn't begin our pursuits of the American Dream by breaking the law.
00:38We respected America and we wanted to earn our citizenship.
00:50When we arrived in the Bronx, we lived on the sixth floor of a graffiti-painted building.
00:56Both my parents worked two jobs.
00:59At 18, I achieved one of my greatest aspirations.
01:04I became a United States citizen!
01:15I asked my father which party I should join.
01:18He said that we're Hispanics, we vote Democrat.
01:23But the more I learned, the more I saw that the Democratic Party didn't represent my values.
01:29Republicans did.
01:37I believe that the most important institution is the family.
01:42That the U.S. Constitution is the greatest document in history.
01:46And that every human being, born and unborn, is made in the image of God.
02:01Today, I'm proud to be part of an organization that protects the freedoms and opportunities of women across America.
02:09I've had the honor of meeting thousands of moms.
02:13Since Biden took office, I've heard one message from mothers from all backgrounds.
02:18The cost of living is making it harder to meet basic needs.
02:23Moms are reaching down the bottom shelf to just save 35 cents.
02:28Grandmothers, who should be enjoying their golden years, are working again to barely make ends meet.
02:35Under the Biden-Harris agenda, we're no longer living.
02:40We're surviving.
02:42It feels more and more like I'm back in Latin America.
02:46Under President Trump, Hispanics' unemployment reached record lows and our income reached a record high.
02:56To my fellow Hispanic Americans, and to all Americans, if you believe in faith, family, freedom, financial stability, join me in voting for Donald Trump this November!
03:17Thank you, America!
