GOP Representative Mayra Flores blasts Democrats following her rejection from the Congressional Hispanic Caucus.

On Wednesday, Flores (R-Texas) claimed that Democrats are biased towards Conservative Latinas after she was blocked from joining the group.

In a statement, the CHC, which is composed entirely of Democrats, confirmed that part of their reason for rejecting Flores was because she is a Republican.

Flores stressed that as a first-born Mexican American Congresswoman, she thought the caucus would be open to working together. She added that the denial proves that Conservative Latinas don’t fit their narrative or ideology.

As the first Mexican-born American Congresswoman, I thought the Hispanic Caucus would be open in working together. This denial once again proves a bias towards conservative Latinas that don’t fit their narrative or ideology. https://t.co/oqYjrGDJaU pic.twitter.com/ugqkKMk5sb
