Race summary
Rep. Nanette Barragán’s two-year stint as chair of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus was bumpy from start to finish: Colleagues considered ousting her from the job in February 2023 over a massive staff exodus, negotiations with former President Joe Biden over immigration legislation were strained, and the party suffered steep electoral losses with Hispanic voters on her way out the door. Genevieve Angel and her moved on uncontested to the general election in November.Key Dates
