Dear LCLAA Members and Allies,
Every year we take the new calendar as a chance to pause and reflect, digest the previous year's lessons, and put ourselves in the best position to flourish. In 2023 we are determined here at LCLAA to address the challenges and obstacles that Latino working families are still forced to face. The Latina pay gap still persists. Immigration pathways continue to be under attack, and union busting is rampant.
We cannot successfully challenge any of this without the support and solidarity of our labor family. With this in mind, LCLAA has launched its 2023 Membership Drive and are asking all chapters to recruit 50 new members.
Through this and your consistent support, we seek to push and challenge ourselves to increase our membership and empower our organization as we strive to meet our mission. If you have any questions or want to learn more, please contact our Chapter Development & Field Coordinator, Cristina Barillas, at cbarillas@lclaa.org.
As we move forward in 2023, I want to extend my gratitude. Our accomplishments and our impact are the product of our collective efforts, and LCLAA could not be where it is today without your dedication.
Yanira Merino
National President of LCLAA
