  • Colorado Congressman Gabe Evans’ mom was born in the United States. Yet, throughout his election campaign and after he entered Congress, Evans repeatedly stated that his mother believed she’d spend her entire life in a “hut” with a “dirt floor” in Mexico.
  • “I don’t have any idea where that came from,” said Jennifer Chavez, who is Evans’ mother’s sister (2 years younger)… “It’s just totally delusional, because, I mean, that’s just such a stretch,” said Chavez.
  • Newsline quoted Jennifer Chavez as saying she and Evans’ mother, “were raised in a middle-class neighborhood in El Paso. We went to Eastwood High School, which was predominantly Caucasian.”
  • Evans or his campaign delivered versions of the carefully constructed dirt-floor line in at least 10 interviews or emails.
  • In interviews, Evans has said directly that he tells his mother’s story about the hut to appeal to Latino voters in his district, which is about 40% Hispanic.
  • “It is a fabrication made up, in my opinion, purposely to play on the emotions of the Hispanic voters in his district,” said Chavez.
