Welcome To Latinos Ready To Vote!

Latinos Ready To Vote (LRTV)  is an organization dedicated to promote voter Registration among Latino Americans, and to naturalize Legal Permanent Residents in Latino communities. We will work to inform Latinos on issues important to them and their community, work to help create new citizens from those legal immigrants eligible to do so.  Moreover, we will inform them about the benefits of civic engagement to ensure that we, as Americans citizens, have an equal access to legal political rights and representation in all branches of state and federal government.  We know that the Latino community is becoming a strong voting bloc.  Hence,  we encourage Latinos to register to vote and learn about the issues salient to the  community and America, such as education, jobs, the economy, immigration, and their participation in entitlements (i.e. Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid).  Therefore, we seek to encourage all  Latinos in America to participate in their community and in America, through civic engagement, success in education, successful entrepreneurship, and participate in the political process by voting.
