Maryland Legislative Latino Caucus Leading the advocacy for Latino and immigrant communities in the Maryland General Assembly

Priorities for the MLLC include, among others: promoting greater educational achievement and equity in our schools, especially for English Language Learners; ensuring more high-quality jobs and fair wages; reducing health disparities; protecting civil and immigrant rights; and promoting stronger Latino communities through safety and security. Collectively, the MLLC represents decades of experience in elected office and public service. The members currently serve on major legislative committees, including the House Appropriations; Environmental Matters and Transportation; Health and Government Operations, and both the House Judiciary and Senate Judicial Proceedings committees. Their academic and professional backgrounds span a wide spectrum of study and work experiences in the private and public sectors. This diverse, multinational group of Latino legislators has ethnic, cultural, and family roots in the Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, Peru, and Puerto Rico. They represent constituents living in Anne Arundel, Montgomery, and Prince George’s Counties; thus representing more than two-thirds of Maryland’s fast growing Latino population.

Today, on National Immigrants Day, the Maryland Legislative Latino Caucus honors the immigrants who strengthen our state every day. As neighbors, workers, entrepreneurs, students, and families, immigrants help build Maryland’s communities and its future.

October 28 also marks the anniversary of the dedication of the Statue of Liberty, a lasting reminder of the welcome that has defined our nation at its best. We remain committed to policies and services that ensure every Marylander can live with dignity, safety, and opportunity.

Hoy, en el DĂ­a Nacional del Inmigrante, el Caucus Legislativo Latino de Maryland rinde homenaje a las personas inmigrantes que fortalecen nuestro estado cada dĂ­a. Como vecinos, trabajadores, emprendedores, estudiantes y familias, los inmigrantes contribuyen a construir las comunidades y el futuro de Maryland.

El 28 de octubre también se conmemora el aniversario de la inauguración de la Estatua de la Libertad, un recordatorio permanente de la hospitalidad que ha definido a nuestra nación en sus mejores momentos. Reafirmamos nuestro compromiso con políticas y servicios que garanticen que cada habitante de Maryland pueda vivir con dignidad, seguridad y oportunidades.
