LULAC Conference

February 27, 2023

Dear LULAC Familia and Friends,

¡Ahora si! This is it! A big LULAC week is coming in Washington, DC, and I’m sending you a personal invitation to join us.

Now is the time to register for the 2023 LULAC Legislative Conference and Awards Gala on March 8-9 at the historic Omni Shoreham Hotel as we celebrate LULAC’s historic 94th anniversary. Join this exciting and powerful milestone event when we welcome several of America’s most important policymakers and Latino influencers.

Meet Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas, Assistant Deputy Secretary Montserrat Garibay with the Department of Education, and Representative Maxwell Frost from Florida’s 10th District. Listen, ask questions, and share in the experience as we explore the most critical issues facing more than 62 million Latinos in the U.S. and Puerto Rico today.

Also, celebrate with us at the 26th LULAC Awards Gala when we honor individuals who have made historic contributions to our community:

  • The brave U.S. Army veteran Richard Fierro risked his life to stop a mass shooter in Colorado Springs, Colorado.
  • Javier Cazares, a national voice for gun reforms and father of 9-year-old Jacklyn, who was one of the children lost in the tragic Uvalde, Texas, school attack.
  • Iris Martinez, former Illinois state senator and first Latina elected to serve as Clerk of the Circuit Court for Cooke County, one of the largest unified court systems in the world.
  • Rep. Peter Aguilar, Chair of the Democratic Caucus in the House of Representatives and a leading advocate for America’s veterans and funding critical youth programs.
  • Isabel Verver-de la Vega, founder and first teacher of the LULAC Little School of 400, the program that President Lyndon B. Johnson used as a model for Head Start.
  • Jose Altuvé, 2nd Baseman for the 2022 MLB World Series Champions, the Houston Astros, and one of the nation’s outstanding youth role models in professional sports.

These two events will be memorable for LULAC and I want you to be part of them. Register today because space is limited, and let’s plan on sharing history.

¡Hasta La Victoria!

Domingo Garcia
LULAC National President
