This year’s theme for Hispanic Heritage Month is Pioneers of Change: Shaping the Future Together. So we’re highlighting some of the Latinas we believe have paved the path for a brighter future. ✨🇨🇺 Today we honor Ileana Ros-Lehtinen. A Cuban-American that has had a career of firsts! She was the first Latina to serve in the Florida house; the first Latina in the Florida senate; the first Latina to serve in the US House of Representatives; the first Latina and the first Cuban-American in Congress. A true political pioneer in every sense, the representative has retired after forty-years of service to her constituents and local community. 👏🏼 🇺🇸 #hispanicheritage #hispanicheritagemonth #latinapower #latina #latinaleaders #splashtears
