“At a telephonic news briefing today, the National Council of La Raza (NCLR), the largest national Hispanic civil rights and advocacy organization in the U.S., announced the launch of “LEAP to Action,” a voter mobilization project that will partner with community-based organizations (CBOs) in 15 states including California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Nebraska, New Jersey, New Mexico, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, and Wisconsin.
“The marches and rallies in support of comprehensive immigration reform have inspired more than just massive attention. Requests for citizenship applications have surged in the last few weeks, and NCLR has been inundated with requests from Latino-serving CBOs all over the country on how they can get more involved. “LEAP to Action’ is designed to assist CBOs with the critically important process of integrating their communities fully into the political process,” stated Janet Murguí, NCLR President and CEO.”
