Tune in here to this Wednesday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show!
We’re joined by Sandy Moyer from the Republican National Hispanic Assembly of North Carolina to talk about Hispanic outreach and bridging conservative values with political engagement. Sandy explains RNHA-NC’s mission to connect with Hispanic communities across the state and challenge what she calls a long-standing messaging disconnect. She shares her personal story as a second-generation American, emphasizing gratitude for opportunity, legal immigration, and the responsibilities that come with citizenship. Sandy notes that many Hispanic voters hold deeply conservative views centered on faith, family, free markets, and public safety, but are often overlooked or mischaracterized in political conversations.
She describes mixed reactions to her outreach, from strong support to accusations of cultural betrayal, and says those concerns often fade once values-based discussions begin. The conversation also touches on free speech, religious liberty, and immigration policy, with Sandy arguing Republicans better align with lived experiences from socialist and authoritarian countries.
Listen here for all of this and more on The Brett Winterble Show!

Our number two. It is great to be with you,
each and every one of you. I am Brett Witterable.
It's a pleasure to be here on this great occasion.
The President's going to give a speech tonight. We're waiting
to see what that is going to sound like, what
that is going to be. And I want to welcome
to the program somebody who's doing a whole lot of
great work in doing outreach and and helping to bring
(00:33):
people together in this regard. And her name is Sandy Moyer.
She is joining us here and she's part of a
of a very important program UH that is helping to
get the connection between the Republican National Hispanic Assembly of
North Carolina. The shorthand is r n H A n C.
(00:57):
And it's great to have you on the show. Thanks
so much for being time, are making time for us.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
Thank you so much, Brett for inviting me on.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
So let's talk a little bit about your mission, what
you're trying to do, and how it is that you've
come to this position and you know, trying to build
out the relationships that are necessary to get this culture
moving in that direction.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Sure, so basically what we tell people is that we
consider ourselves the arm of the Republican Party to reach
out to the Hispanic community. And we know that, you know,
Hispanics in general are very conservative in their values, and
so there is a disconnect happening right now as far
as messaging, and so we want to make sure that
we are able to you know, a bridge that divide.
So we're a national organization, but our state chapter in
(01:44):
North Carolina has seen a lot of growth. There's a
lot of leaders involved with organizations. So I think we
have a lot of momentum. We just have to continue
being on the grounds and that's what we're trying to do.
Just build those bridges that travel across the state, talk
to different talenties and let them know, hey, here's what
we need to be doing so that we're visible. We're
visible force for the most part. You know, the Republican
(02:06):
Party is obviously always welcoming of you know that any
demographics obviously that shares the same value because the Republican
Party has always had that type of mindset. And I
always tell folks, you know, the Republican Party started out
that way right there, the Abolitionist Party. So what we
see happening right now is, you know, me, I'm Hispanic.
I mean I was born in Brooklyn, New York, but
(02:29):
I was but my parents were Dominicans and they came
here legally, and you know, they taught us to love
this country. I lived in dr for about ten years,
and so I learned the culture in the language, and
then I came back when I was in my teens,
late teens and went to college, and I was always
just taken it back by the generosity of this country.
So I tell people all the time, I think a
lot of US immigrants, even second generation and second generation
(02:52):
immeranc which is what I am. We know the privilege,
the benefits of being an American. I think the issues
and times is the responsibilities? Right, So what's our responsibility?
And so we try to take that message to our communities.
You know the benefits, we know the privileges, what are
what is our responsibility?
Speaker 1 (03:10):
In this general conversation, are you when you're talking to
people about this particular topic, do you find that they
are they are surprised that that you're doing this sort
of outreach? I mean, how do how do they how
do they react to your your entreaties when you're talking
to them?
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Well, there's a there's a large group that's actually pleasantly surprised, like, hey,
there's there's people out here like us. Right. We've had
that response, and then we've also had folks that you know,
have said things like, hey, you're betraying your betraying your
your hair and your culture.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
But that is only because they don't they don't understand.
I think that the Democrats have been on the ground
for quite some time sure, and have been inculcating different
messaging that is based on lies and deceptions. So we
come in and we're like, hey, once we have a conversation, though,
mm hmm, they realize their values align with the Repulican Party.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
And Look, one of the things that's very important to
understand is, you know, as you look across the whole country, Uh,
if people were to to look at the different sorts
of folks that are that are gravitating towards this messaging.
I mean, my goodness that there have been people in
California and the far and the far West who have
(04:24):
been in this continent for you know, four hundred years.
I grew up in a place like that, and you know,
when when you think about all this, this is a
this is a conservative, a friendly sort of conversation, I'm sure.
And and people want what everybody wants, which is strong
values and keep my taxes low and let's keep the
(04:46):
streets safe.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
I mean that exactly.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
It's pretty easy, right, I mean in terms of that.
But I but I can imagine that there are people saying,
oh my gosh, they're trying to betray you or something.
I mean that that's that's very sad and awful.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
I think.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
And like I said, once we start get into the
nitty gritty of the conversations, you know, that's the initial
like once you break through, and then you start talking
about the values and the things that we stand for.
Obviously the same thing you're talking about, the protection of families,
the protection of the individual. You know, a lot of
these folks come from socialist countries. You know, they know
what communism is. So when we start talking about, hey,
(05:18):
we are here, we're protecting private enterprise. We believe in
the free market system, we believe in your freedom of speech,
we believe in your freedom of religion. What happened to
Charlie Kirk most recently had a lot of folks, a
lot of young people, Hispanics that were taken them back
by that because they've seen it in their countries, right,
but we've never seen it here, not recently, right, And
so when they saw that happening, they said, hey, there,
(05:40):
how can we get involved. You know, in Mexico they
just killed they've been killing people that there are dissided voices,
you know that dare to speak against the government in Colombia.
They've done the same in Nicaragua and Venezuela. And so
when they saw that that happened here, they said, wait
a second. So when we tell them, hey, we're the
party that believes in your freedom of speech, and its
(06:02):
apparent we're the part that believes in your freedom of religion,
and this administration has been the most friendly to that,
to Christianity and people of all faiths. I tell people
all the time, like the only thing that they are,
the only thing that democrats Democrats have and I'll be
bro Frank, is they keep telling them that they keep
promising them something regarding immigration, and that's that topic keeps
(06:25):
coming up over and over and over again. So what
we tell him is, hey, let's go back to to
to Clinton when he had the House and Senate. What
did he do nothing. Let's go back to Oba administration.
What did he do? He deported way more illegal immigrants
than any president before or after him. What did Biden do?
Biden had the House and Senate as well and did
(06:46):
nothing anything. He broke the border, so I didn't care
about the people that were here ten fifteen, twenty years.
He brought in a new group and immediately put them
on benefits that belonged to the legal to legal res
to legal folks here and citizens. So we tell them, hey,
they've never there's never been that promise has never been
realized by the Macro party. But why is it that
that's the one thing that they angle over you every
(07:07):
election and that's enough to get you to vote for
the Democrat Party?
Speaker 1 (07:11):
This is this is such an important This is such
an important message and this is such an important uh
thing that you're doing here. Uh. People who listen to
the show may want to reach out to you. How
how can they reach out to you to to maybe
help or or or or support or whatever it is?
How do they reach out to you?
Speaker 2 (07:29):

they reach out on those pages, they can get my

Speaker 1 (07:46):
I have a very strong feeling that we're gonna hear
stuff from the president tonight. Uh that that that may
be changeable, you know what I'm saying, Like we may
be seeing good things coming down down the pipeline, and uh,
I think it's a it's an important thing. Especially. I
love I love the message that you're putting out there. God, family, country.
I mean, this is a very important thing. We're all
(08:07):
in this together. So once again, where.
