I've never been happier for a TACO Tuesday! The next two weeks must see tangible action from Congress, to rein in the president, and ensure that the threat of Nukes remain off the table, even in 3am social media posts.

That is exactly why I am running for SC01. I want to share with the students my experience as a scholar in foreign trade and international relations and how I can contribute to this conversation in Washington.

This Thursday from 6-7pm, I am speaking to College of Charleston students about the urgent moment we are in. We have an opportunity in the midterms to reel in some of the unconstitutional behaviors and unaccountability that exists in this administration.

This is not about fiscal responsibility. The money exists. This administration is making a deliberate choice about who is worth protecting, and working families with children are not on that list.

Live 5 News Follow 2h X President Trump said he told White House budget director Russell Vought, "'Don't send any money for day care,' because the United States can't take care of day care." "We're fighting wars. We can't take care of day care," Trump said Wednesday while speaking at a White House Easter lunch. He went on to say that the states should "take care of day care, and they should pay for it, too," by raising their taxes. "We have to take care of one thing, military protection," Trump added. "We have to guard the country.
Donald J. Trump @realDonald Trump 3h Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!! Open the Fuckin' Strait, you crazy bastards, or you'll be living in Hell - JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah. President DONALD J. TRUMP
The same president who said "we can't take care of daycare" is threatening to bomb power plants and bridges in Iran. Here's what that actually means. 🧵

Dr. King was assassinated on this day in 1968. Let us carry on his messages by organizing our communities and empowering new leaders who believe in equal protection under the law.

I want to acknowledge the way that Dr. King made the civil rights movement and the labor movement a big tent that all people can gather under to fight for social, economic, and racial justice.

Today, we remember Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and his legacy. Dr. King believed in a world where we as a community serve one another and support each other.

Spent the day in Hampton at a parade honoring Dr. King.
No scripts. No filters. Just real conversations with people about what needs to change.
That’s how you build something real.

When I am in Congress, I will remember what the residents in the Lowcountry are telling me - they want a New American Dream.
That’s why I’m running, because we can afford to set our people up for a good life when everyone pays their fair share.

Many of them are very concerned about the way the Trump administration is overspending on unconstitutional foreign policy, as well as the ways major corporations are paying less in taxes than we are.

Some of the local Dorchester County Democrats held a candidate meet-and-greet in Summerville this week. It was a great opportunity for me to listen to what people in Summerville are seeing on the ground in their community.

MAYRA RIVERA VAZQUEZ FOR CONGRESS South Carolina's First Congressional District mayra4congress.com||info@mayra4congress.com FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE April 1, 2026 Rivera Vazquez Condemns Trump's Attack on the 14th Amendment as Supreme Court Hears Birthright Citizenship Case “No president has the power to rewrite the Constitution by executive order. This case is about whether we keep our promise to every child born on American soil.” BEAUFORT, S.C. — As the United States Supreme Court heard oral arguments today in Trump v. Barbara, the most significant constitutional challenge to birthright citizenship in American history; Mayra Rivera Vazquez, Democratic candidate for South Carolina’s First Congressional District, issued the following statement condemning the Trump administration’s effort to strip citizenship from children born on U.S. soil. “The 14th Amendment is not a loophole. It is a promise,” said Rivera Vazquez. “Written in the aftermath of the Civil War to ensure that no government, not a court, not a president, not a king, could ever again decide that some people born on American soil are less than citizens. That promise is on trial today. “I am running for Congress in South Carolina’s First District. My community knows what it means to be told you don’t fully belong here. We know what it means to have your dignity questioned, your legitimacy challenged, your children’s future put on the line. That is exactly what this executive order does and it is exactly what the 14th Amendment was written to prevent.
Every federal court that has reviewed this order has found it unconstitutional. Legal scholars across the political spectrum have called it a rewriting of the Constitution itself. The plain text of the amendment is unambiguous: all persons born in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof are citizens. There is nothing ambiguous about that. There is nothing to reinterpret. If this administration succeeds, it will not just affect future children, it will cast a shadow over the citizenship of millions of Americans going back decades, creating the kind of permanent underclass this nation fought a Civil War to abolish. I stand with the families whose children’s citizenship hangs in the balance today. I will carry this fight to Congress, where I will oppose any effort, legislative or otherwise, to undermine the 14th Amendment. The floor of our democracy is not negotiable.”
I have issued a statement regarding the Birthright Citizenship Case being heard by the Supreme Court today. See the full statement below.

I get comments like this all the time. Lately, more people feel bold enough to be openly racist.
My answer hasn’t changed. Hate will not win. I’m running to build a better SC rooted in dignity and real opportunity.

Last week, I had the pleasure of meeting with Daniel Island residents in their homes alongside friends. One of my favorite parts of public service is listening to people’s concerns and discussing the issues we can solve together.

Let’s lead with purpose. Let’s lead together.

I'm thrilled to announce that the March On PAC has endorsed my campaign. This is the same PAC that took back Mar-a-Lago's district in a Florida special election, and I'm excited to get down to business!
