WASHINGTON, D.C. – The Democratic Presidential nominee, Hillary Rodham Clinton, will address the members of the League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC) at its 87th national convention in Washington, D.C. The LULAC convention packs more energy and draws more people than any other event in the Latino community. “LULAC is honored to have the first woman to lead a major party ticket address our national convention in July,” said LULAC National President Roger C. Rocha, Jr. “As one of the country’s most influential leaders, LULAC is eager to hear Secretary Clinton's vision and her plans to address the issues of importance to the Latino community.”

Guided by the theme, Latinos at the Seat of Power, the 87th Annual LULAC National Convention and Exposition will address the most pressing issues for the Latino community. Noteworthy events include policy workshops, a job fair, and the federal training institute. Additionally, separate tracks for the youth will provide the Latino community's emerging leaders with the opportunity to learn about the issues that impact our community.
