A Costa Rica native and the guest of Rep. Jimmy Gomez, D-Los Angeles, Sandra Diaz worked as a housekeeper at Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, N.J., from 2010 to 2013.
Now a U.S. citizen, the New York Times reported that Diaz was an undocumented immigrant at the time that she worked for Trump, and her supervisors were aware of her status. “She said she washed and ironed Mr. Trump’s white boxers, golf shirts and khaki trousers, as well as his sheets and towels,” the Times article read.
“It’s no small feat for a migrant from Costa Rica to stand up to a bully and hypocrite in the White House,” Gomez said in a news release.
“She is living proof that President Trump couldn’t be more wrong – both morally and factually – when he demonizes those who come to America seeking a better life.”
