Hi John,
In America, Latinx people make up about 18% of the population but they only hold 1.2% of local, state, and federal elected offices.
That's abysmal representation, and it's not just a stat line -- marginalization has
real implications for folks residing in America. We need to do better, we
can do more to elect visionary Latinx young progressives to power.
That's why for Latinx Heritage Month, we're uplifting Latinx, Hispanic, and Latino-identifying progressives running to strengthen and lead the progressive movement.
Get your (FREE!) ticket for Unapologetically Progressive and Latinx to meet RFS alumni and candidates paving the way for a stronger, more representative America. It's happening on September 30th @ 8 p.m. ET.
This event is free!
Thanks and have a great week!
