Marches Fortified Latino Political Energy

Pro-immigrant marches this spring and the nation’s ongoing immigration policy debate have unified and politically energized Latinos, according to a national survey conducted by the Pew Hispanic Center in Washington, D.C. 

For the first time since the center began polling the attitudes of the country’s Latinos in 2002, a majority said they feel that Latinos of different national origins are working together to achieve common political goals. Of the 2,000 people polled this year, 58 percent said so, compared to 43 percent four years ago. Click here.
