Con una proclama que destaca la contribución de las #mujereshispanas en🇺🇸, el jueves 2 de octubre fue nombrado como el “Día de la Mujer Hispana”, en donde el @ConsulMexMia estuvo presente acompañado de mujeres🇲🇽 de diversos sectores @MiamiDadeCounty. Nuestro reconocimiento a Yamilet Rivas, presidenta y fundadora de la Cámara de Comercio de Mujeres de Estados Unidos y a su destacado equipo de colaboradores por sumar esfuerzos y honrar a las #mujeres hispanas y construir un legado de resiliencia, sororidad, empatía, igualdad y equidad. Un gusto compartir la ocasión con destacadas mujeres como @pamfuertes Decana de la Escuela de Negocios Globales, Comercio y Transporte Miguel B. Fernández @MDCollege; la Senadora estatal @SenatorAMR; la comisionada @CommishEileen @MiamiDadeCounty; la alcaldesa de @Cityofdoral @ChristiFraga e @IbisInMiami en representación de la alcaldesa @MayorDaniella. Ser parte de este momento es visibilizar la invaluable contribución socioeconómica de una comunidad de 1.3 millones de mujeres hispanas en el estado de Florida. Al respecto, las autoridades locales y representantes comunitarios destacaron el papel de las mujeres hispanas en la creación de pequeñas y medianas empresas, respaldadas por la Cámara de Comercio de Mujeres🇺🇸. A poco más de un año de su fundación, la Cámara de Comercio de Mujeres🇺🇸 se ha consolidado como un referente en la comunidad empresarial del sur de la Florida. La generación de oportunidades, así como el impulso colectivo de tantas mujeres hispanas que comparten sus experiencias y mejores prácticas, constituye un motivo de orgullo e inspiración para toda la comunidad. ¡Enhorabuena!

Federal immigration actions prioritize fear and enforcement over compassion and justice. These policies are not only ineffective in managing our immigration challenges but also inhumane, undermining the values that define our nation.

Happy #CubanIndependenceDay! 🇨🇺 Today, we honor the enduring spirit of the Cuban people & the generations who have fought for freedom and justice. Here in Miami-Dade, our vibrant Cuban community continues to shape our culture, economy, and history with pride and resilience.💙❤️🤍

Miami-Dade is proud to be home to the largest Venezuelan community in the U.S. I’m heartbroken for these families who followed the legal process and now face deportation to a brutal dictatorship. We continue to stand with those seeking protection from oppression and persecution.

Join me for our next edition of Conversations with Cava, starting this Friday, May 16. Across north, south, and central Dade, we are hosting conversations about this year’s county budget. Make your voice heard and come learn more about our budget process! bit.ly/2025MDCBudget

I am deeply disappointed by the Florida Legislature’s vote to ban fluoride from tap water, a decision that disregards the guidance of dentists, doctors, and medical experts. Ending fluoridation will have long-lasting impact on health—especially for our most vulnerable families.

Proud of @MayorDaniella for vetoing the rushed vote to end water fluoridation in Miami-Dade. She listened to doctors, dentists & parents—and stood with science. Fluoride is safe, effective & essential, especially for kids. Facts > fear. #PublicHealth #MiamiDade

The "Latino vote" is nuanced and not easily defined. Thank you for including my commentary @CBSMiami

LWVMD President @IbisInMiami spoke with @JavierRomerotv about voting, healthcare, education and our advocacy work. Check it out this Saturday at 5pm on @Univision23!

Your support fuels our mission to ensure every voice is heard. As we celebrate #IWD, let’s unite for a future where everyone has the right to vote, and democracy thrives #LeagueofWomenVoters #DemocracyDefender (4/4)

Democracy is the bedrock of our society, and the League’s mission aligns with empowering voices. My journey from a Cuban immigrant family to leading this organization is a testament to the strength of democracy and the fight for inclusion (3/4)

🎉 Celebrating my birthday on #InternationalWomensDay! Grateful for the journey with @LWVMiamiDade from board member in 2018 to President in 2023. As a Cuban-American, I’m passionate about defending voting rights – a fundamental American right. (1/4)

Allow me to reintroduce myself: I'm the newly elected President of the League of Women Voters of Miami-Dade! I’m here to champion equality, democracy, and the power of women's voices. Let's make a difference together! 🌴🔥 #MiamiAdvocate #LeagueOfWomenVoters #HumanRights

Love spending time with women founders! The backbone of any economy 👏🏼

Thank you @NortheasternMIA for the opportunity to attend @eMergeAmericas 🙏🏼 what a great honor to be in a space with the brightest minds in tech and entrepreneurship!

I can accept disagreement. I can’t accept disrespect. There is a difference.

Valdés Family Reunion™️ with @MarthaOfMiami and Kiki Valdés at The Walls afterparty gala 🎭 🎉 Support the arts! Love the new Westchester cultural arts center.
