Dear LCLAA Members and Allies,
Since LCLAA’s founding, part of our mission has always been to educate, organize and mobilize Latino/as in the political process. For five decades, we have been determined to make all our members prepared to use their voice by going to the polls.
We have the power to make a difference in our communities, in our hometowns, and in our country. We can make our voices heard by supporting candidates that look out for us - for the Latino workers that have fed our country, that have built our homes and places of work, and that have overcome incredible obstacles to improve our working conditions.
This Voter Education Week, I ask you all - do you have a plan to vote this November? Do you know where your polling location is? Do you know if you will have to vote before or after your workday? Do you know if you will have to vote by mail?
Our states vary widely in their voting rules and policies. I urge you all, if you do not know yet how you are voting for the upcoming Midterms, use this link to create a plan to vote this November. Our voice is only powerful if we choose to use it. I call on each of you to join our pledge and commit to vote in this critical election.
In solidarity,
Yanira Merino
National President of LCLAA
