Back in 2014, I met Utah Attorney General Sean Reyes at the Republican Election Night party. I was a young, independent voter at the time, just figuring out the networking labyrinth.
As a first-generation American with immigrant parents, I was anxious to figure out my way in the political world. I asked Reyes that evening for advice in ways to get involved in politics. He encouraged me and one of his advisors told me that the Republican Party needs more Latinas.
The Republican Party needs more of a lot of things. In my opinion, they ought to start with more tolerance and understanding.
