Congressional Hispanic Caucus Chair Linda Sanchez Endorses Hillary Clinton for President



http://www.latinpost.com/articles/102951/20151217/hillary-clinton-endorsements-congressional-hispanic-caucus-chair-linda-sanchez.htm

Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton received the endorsement of a top Latina member of Congress.

Rep. Linda Sanchez, D-Calif., who also serves as the chair for the Congressional Hispanic Caucus (CHC), announced her endorsements in an op-ed on the Spanish-language publication La Opinion.

Based on the English text sent to Latin Post, Sanchez explained the next president has to keep fighting for families seeking a better life, especially during economic or labor setbacks, "and I believe with all my heart that president should and will be Hillary Clinton."

While she does give President Barack Obama credit for handling matters after the Great Recession, Sanchez wrote that there is still a lot more to get accomplished.

"Hillary has been a champion for working families her entire career. She has fought tirelessly for comprehensive immigration reform that would keep so many of those families together, and give their children the best possible shot at reaching their full potential," Sanchez wrote, adding that the former secretary of state has been "a passionate ally of the Latino community" on issues they relate to, ranging from the economy, health care and education."
