US EditionRep. Lauren Boebert stirs controversy in Latino community with Halloween costume making light of ICE crackdown
- On Friday, Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert attended a Loveland Halloween party dressed as a Mexican woman while her boyfriend, Kyle Pearcy, appeared as an ICE agent in camouflage and vest.
- The costume referenced the Trump administration's immigration crackdown, drawing criticism in Colorado's 4th Congressional District, which the Colorado Redistricting Commission said is at least 14% Latino and includes immigrant Marina Ortiz, detained by ICE last month.
- Photos circulated on social media over the weekend, prompting shock among party attendees reported to ABC News, with some avoiding the couple and calling it `the most disgusting thing I have ever seen`.
- Latino advocacy groups and Democratic officials condemned the costume and demanded an apology, with State Sen. Julie Gonzales saying Boebert should apologize and Stacy Suniga calling her ashamed, while Boebert's office said `It's a Halloween costume`.
- With a 2026 rematch looming, Boebert's record of the Buell Theatre incident and a prior apology four years ago may fuel Democrat Trisha Calvarese's challenge.
