Miami está hecho de personas que convierten ideas en oportunidades.

Anoche acompañé a la Cámara de Comercio de Mujeres Hispanas de Estados Unidos para celebrar a emprendedoras que están creando negocios, generando empleos y fortaleciendo nuestra economía.

También tuve el orgullo de entregar a la Cámara un reconocimiento del Congreso por su trabajo en nuestra comunidad.

Eso es el Sueño Americano en acción: trabajar duro, construir algo propio y crear oportunidades para otros.

¡Felicidades a todas las mujeres que celebramos anoche! 🇺🇸

[Rep. María Elvira Salazar @RepMariaSalazar]

Miami is built by people who turn ideas into opportunity.

Last night, I joined the U.S. Hispanic Women’s Chamber of Commerce to celebrate entrepreneurs who are building businesses, creating jobs, and strengthening our economy.

I was also proud to present the Chamber with a Congressional recognition honoring its work in our community.

That is the American Dream in action: work hard, build something of your own, and create opportunities for others.

Congratulations to all the women we celebrated last night! 🇺🇸

Hoy, Anna Bensi, de apenas 21 años, y su madre, Caridad, enfrentan un juicio en La Habana, mientras la Seguridad del Estado vigila las casas de periodistas y activistas que intentan acompañarlas.

Mientras la dictadura cubana se derrumba bajo el peso de sus propios fracasos, la represión es lo único que le queda. Pero voces como la de Anna se hacen cada vez más fuertes.

Con apenas 21 años, Anna representa la valentía de tantos cubanos que se niegan a dejarse intimidar y guardar silencio.

Anna y Caridad, hoy estamos con ustedes.

[Martí Noticias @martinoticias]

‼️Cuatro denominaciones protestantes cubanas —Asambleas de Dios, Convención Bautista de Cuba Occidental, Liga Evangélica de Cuba e Iglesia Metodista— expresaron respaldo a la influencer cristiana Anna Sofía Benítez Silvente, Anna Bensi, y a su madre, Caridad Silvente Laffita, a horas de un juicio previsto para este 1 de octubre.
👉Las mujeres enfrentan cargos por presunta violación de la privacidad de un oficial de la Seguridad del Estado, tras difundir un video vinculado a una citación oficial, y podrían recibir hasta dos años de prisión.
🙏Solidaridad Cristiana Mundial calificó de inédito el apoyo conjunto de estas iglesias y pidió a las autoridades cubanas retirar los cargos.

Today, 21-year-old Anna Bensi and her mother, Caridad, are facing trial in Havana, while State Security surrounds the homes of journalists and activists trying to attend.

As the Cuban dictatorship collapses under the weight of its own failures, repression is all it has left. But voices like Anna’s are only getting stronger.

At just 21, she represents the courage of Cubans who refuse to be intimidated into silence.

Anna and Caridad, today we stand with you. 🇨🇺

🚨 “No es justo”: Anna Bensi habla antes de entrar al tribunal

“No es justo. Ninguno de nosotros somos unos criminales”, afirmó Anna Bensi.

[Juan Pablo Segura @WHAAsstSecty]

The U.S. is closing loopholes the Cuban regime has exploited for years. @USTreasury's new Cuba Sanctions Regulations under E.O. 14404 and amendments to the Cuban Assets Control Regulations cut off the financial pathways that funneled resources to Cuba's repressive security apparatus. This action ensures that American dollars do not serve as a lifeline for this illegitimate Marxist regime.

[Town of Cutler Bay @townofcutlerbay]

Thank you, Congresswoman Salazar, for joining our Hispanic Heritage Celebration and for bringing funding for drainage improvements in our town! These projects will help reduce flooding and protect Biscayne Bay. We appreciate your support for our community! #cutlerbay

[Rep. María Elvira Salazar @RepMariaSalazar]

Cutler Bay sabe cómo celebrar a su gente.

Me encantó compartir con tantas familias en Cutler Ridge Park durante la celebración del Mes de la Herencia Hispana, música, comida, niños disfrutando y toda una comunidad reunida.

Y llegué con buenas noticias: $2 millones para Cutler Bay, $1 millón para Saga Bay y $1 millón para Lakes by the Bay para mejorar el drenaje, reducir las inundaciones y ayudar a proteger la bahía de Biscayne.

Celebrando nuestras raíces y, al mismo tiempo, cuidando la comunidad que llamamos hogar.

[Rep. María Elvira Salazar @RepMariaSalazar]

Cutler Bay knows how to celebrate its community.

I loved spending time with families at Cutler Ridge Park for the Hispanic Heritage Celebration, music, food, kids, and so many neighbors enjoying the evening together.

And I came with good news: $2 million for Cutler Bay, $1 million for Saga Bay and $1 million for Lakes by the Bay to improve drainage, reduce flooding, and help protect Biscayne Bay.

Celebrating our roots while taking care of the community we call home.

Muy orgullosa de acompañar a Mount Sinai en la apertura de su nuevo Centro de Emergencias en Westchester, aquí en el Distrito 27.

Nuestras familias merecen salud de calidad, asequible y cerca de casa.

En el Congreso, seguiré trabajando para bajar costos y fortalecer la atención médica en nuestra comunidad.

¡Felicidades a todo el equipo de Mount Sinai!

[Rep. María Elvira Salazar @RepMariaSalazar]

Proud to join the Mount Sinai family for the opening of its new medical Emergency Center in Westchester, right here in Florida’s 27th District.

Our families deserve quality, affordable healthcare close to home.

That’s what I’ll keep working for in Congress: lower costs, stronger healthcare, and more support for the doctors and nurses who take care of our community.

Congratulations to the entire Mount Sinai team on this important milestone.

Great visit with the Citi team in Miami today!

We talked about banking, AI, innovation, and how we keep our economy growing.

Miami is becoming one of America’s most important centers for finance and investment, while remaining our gateway to Latin America.

As a member of the House Financial Services Committee, I always value hearing directly from the people doing the work and investing in our community.

Thank you to Woodward Middleton and the entire Citi team for the warm welcome!

Ambassador @yechielleiter is a personal friend and an outstanding human being who has served Israel above and beyond the call of duty.

The Lord of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is upon him as his son Neria fights for his life after a horrific terrorist attack.

We know our God is Almighty. We hold on to faith and the power of prayer as HIS merciful hand makes a healing miracle.

[Ambassador Yechiel (Michael) Leiter @yechielleiter]

I am grateful to the IDF, to the medical team at Shaare Zedek who are now fighting to save the life of Neria Dov ben Chana, and for the prayers of the people of Israel.

I believe in the power of prayer, and I believe that when the people of Israel unite, miracles happen. Neria needs a miracle.

Neria continued to serve in the reserves after losing his older brother, Moshe Yedidya Leiter, of blessed memory. Since October 7th, he has served hundreds of days in the reserves on multiple fronts.

Palestinian terrorism seeks to uproot the people of Israel from their land.

They choose death - we choose life.

[House Republicans @HouseGOP]

This week, we pause to honor our Gold Star Families. These families carry the weight of unimaginable loss so that America can remain free and strong. Their loved ones gave everything in service to our nation. We will never forget their sacrifice.

[U.S. Mission to the UN @USUN]

President Trump: My administration is seeking a fundamental change in the situation in Cuba, where the Communist regime is under great pressure, the biggest pressure they've ever been under. It's an absolutely failed state. It's failing like never before, and it will fall.
