Latino Civil Rights Groups and Immigration Reform

The Washington Post (here) has an interesting article on the input of Latino civil rights groups on immigration reform.  Here is part of the article:

After laboring in obscurity for decades, groups such as the National Council of La Raza, the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund, and the National Immigration Forum are virtually being granted veto power over perhaps the biggest domestic issue coming before Congress this year. Organizations that represent what is now the nation’s largest minority group are beginning to achieve power commensurate with their numbers.
