CNC Merced Organizer Rosa Inguanzo urges Latinos to vote NO on the recall
Why we need to vote: CNC Merced Organizer Rosa Inguanzo shares why she encourages Californians to vote NO on the recall of Gavin Newsom. Governor Newsom has been a fighter and advocate for Latinos throughout his entire career. As governor, he supported our families with driver's licenses, expanded healthcare to cover our undocumented family members, and he greatly invested in our representation in the census and in the United States Senate. Gavin Newsom has always supported us – it’s now time to support him by voting NO on the recall to protect our future and our families. Watch Rosa’s full testimony here.
