Mexican American singer Graciela Beltrán, community leaders, entrepreneurs, and young soldiers will be united in this press conference to urge the Mexican community to vote.
Graciela Beltran says, “Our community is very noble and hardworking, that is why we need to be heard through our vote. Today more than ever we have to go out and vote as family and ensure that no citizen of this country is left without voting.”
In a critical moment were the Mexican community has been scorned, Mexicans raise their voice and encourage Mexican families and all naturalized citizens to go out and vote on Tuesday, November 8th.
