Democratic presidential candidate South Bend, Indiana Mayor Pete Buttigieg speaks at a campaign event December 08, 2019 at Washington Middle School in Washington, Iowa.Democratic presidential contender Pete Buttigieg unveiled a new proposal on Monday pledging a "new era for Latinos," including a rollback of a number of President Donald Trump's policies.
Buttigieg, the mayor of South Bend, Indiana, is in fourth place in national surveys of the Democratic presidential primary. Despite his appeal among white voters in the early contest states of Iowa and New Hampshire, he has had trouble connecting with Americans of color, including black and Latino voters, which are both key voting blocs., 29% of Hispanic voters view Buttigieg favorably, compared to 50% for former Vice President Joe Biden, 55% for Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt. and 35% for Sen.
Among the proposals included in both plans is a call for bigger investments in Latino-owned businesses using a $10 billion fund for minority entrepreneurs, and a proposal to award 25% of federal contracting dollars to underrepresented groups, including Latinos. The public charge rule, currently blocked by federal courts, would make it more difficult for low-income immigrants to obtain green cards. The Supreme Court ruled that Trump could not add a citizenship question to the census in June.
That pathway would be available to the so-called "Dreamers," or those protected by the Obama-era Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals Program, as well as those with Temporary Protected Status, according to the plan.
