Why do voting rights matter? As SEIU's Eliseo Medina recently told the press about November 2012:
This is one of the most important elections for the Latino community because there's a lot at stake—an agenda that calls for good jobs, tax fairness, affordable health care, and creation of a sensible immigration process.""We have a chance to shape this agenda via the ballot box, but it's all in our hands. We have to make sure we are all registered, educated and ready to vote come November.
Need we say more? Join us today!
