Come to SALSA!
|
|
Latino student organizations throughout the United States
are being invited to join SALSA, the Strategic Alliance for Latino Student
Action. As SALSA partners, Latino student organizations will receive nonpartisan
Latino Vote buttons, posters, pens, and banners to help them register their
fellow students on their campus and earn discounts to attend one of USHLI's
four regional student leadership conferences.
After the registration deadline, these student organizations
will hold weekend nonpartisan Get-Out-the-Vote parties using free minutes on
their cell phones, text messaging, and email to contact their fellow students. After
the election, our SALSA partners will host USHLI's Collegiate Leadership
Development Program on their campus.
Click here for more information on SALSA and the
appropriate USHLI staff will contact you.

USHLI Supports AARP's "Divided We Fail" Campaign
|
|
USHLI president, Dr. Juan Andrade, has entered into a
partnership with AARP, strongly endorsing the "Divided We Fail" campaign. The nonpartisan campaign calls on everyone to join with millions of
other Americans in supporting candidates who will move beyond the usual
generalities and ambiguities and give us action, answers and accountability on
health and financial security.
In signing the nonpartisan pledge card provided by AARP,
Andrade said "the overwhelming majority of the nearly 50 million Americans
without health care or adequate health care are Latino, and those of us who
care about that fact have a moral responsibility to hold our elected officials
accountable."

to join with USHLI in support of AARP's nonpartisan "Divided We Fail" campaign and send our elected officials a powerful
message to end the gridlock in Washington
and get things done. |
