“When Juan Romagoza moved to Washington in 1986, he cleaned the swanky mahogany offices of K Street lobbyists by day. At night, he saw Latino patients at a one-room clinic called La Clinica del Pueblo, a facility founded by Central American activists.

A refugee from the Salvadoran civil war, Romagoza, a physician, escaped to the United States in 1983 at the height of the conflict and lived in San Francisco for three years before moving to the District to live near other refugees”*
