Outcome of Key Contests Will Influence Path Forward on Immigration Reform Next Year
Today, America’s Voice releases a spotlight on fourteen competitive House races of importance to Latino and Asian voters and all those who care about common sense immigration reform. The analysis evaluates the power of the Latino and Asian voter community in these Congressional Districts and summarizes where each U.S. House candidate stands on the issue of immigration reform. America’s Voice released a similar spotlight on Senate races to watch last week.
