Latinos Ready To Vote (LRTV) is an organization dedicated to informing Latinos about issues that are important to them and their community. Furthermore, we aim to educate them about the benefits of civic engagement to ensure that as American citizens, we all have equal access to our legal political rights and representation in all branches of state and federal government.
We recognize the growing strength of the Latino community as a significant voting bloc. Therefore, we encourage Latinos to register to vote and familiarize themselves with issues relevant to both the community and the nation, such as education, job opportunities, the economy, immigration, and the challenges within entitlement systems (e.g., Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid) that may affect future generations of Americans. Consequently, we strive to inspire all Latinos in America to actively engage in their communities, pursue educational success, foster entrepreneurship, and participate in the political process by casting their votes.
