Hillary Clinton has filled a major communications position in the campaign, tapping Xochitl Hinojosa as director of coalitions press, five sources told BuzzFeed News.
Hinojosa, who served at the Department of Labor under Secretary Tom Perez for almost two years and is the daughter of Texas Democratic Party Chairman Gilberto Hinojosa, will oversee Hispanic, black, and women’s media, among others.
Her last day in her current role is next week. The Clinton campaign declined to comment on the hire.
Democratic strategist Maria Cardona said Hinojosa has been in the mix as an early hire for a while. Cardona worked with Hinojosa on two projects with the Department of Labor and said she is someone who understands the nuances of the press landscape both in general media and Hispanic media.
“It’s a rare mix to be able to get someone like her with experience, someone who can do it well and do it with grace,” she said. “I was thrilled when they told me her name.”
