Raul Grijalva who passed away in March.⁠ ⁠ Adelita Grijalva's victory marks the very first time that Arizona has voted to send a Latina to congress, where Latinas remain an underrepresented minority. ⁠ ⁠ #latina #latinas #AdelitaGrijalva #news #noticias #history #jefa #jefas #latinasincongress #latinarepresentation #hispanicheritagemonth #hispanicheritage #hispanic #latino #latinos #latinapride #latinasmakinghistory
