Undocumented immigrants are central to the success of the nation\, yet they are excluded from critical economic\, political and civic opportunities. This not only impacts their lives but hinders progress for the country as we seek to overcome a global pandemic. \nLPPI will convene a diverse set of voices to address two fundamental questions: What should 21st century immigration reform look like and what are the challenges and opportunities to pass a package that doesn’t leave anyone behind? \nThe webinar will be moderated by Russell Conteras\, Axios race and justice reporter\, and feature these panelists: \n\nJoaquin Castro\, United States Representative\, TX-20\nAndrew Selee\, President of the Migration Policy Institute\nDr. Cecilia Menjívar\, Dorothy Meier Chair in Social Equities and Professor of Sociology at UCLA\nAngélica Salas\, Executive Director of the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights\, Los Angeles\nLinda Sánchez\, United States Representative\, CA-38 (Invited)\nRob Bonta\, California Attorney General (Invited) URL:https://luskin.ucla.edu/event/immigration-reform-for-the-21st-century LOCATION:Virtual\, CA\, United States CATEGORIES:For Faculty,For Policymakers,For Students,School of Public Affairs ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://luskin.ucla.edu/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/LPPI-immigration-event.jpeg ORGANIZER;CN="UCLA Latino Policy &%3B Politics Initiative":MAILTO:latino@luskin.ucla.edu END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20201124T103000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20201124T120000 DTSTAMP:20260428T042743 CREATED:20201109T211555Z LAST-MODIFIED:20201110T221715Z UID:10002545-1606213800-1606219200@luskin.ucla.edu SUMMARY:Analyzing the Latino Vote in the 2020 Elections DESCRIPTION:America’s largest and diverse non-white voting bloc has made it clear that they are important actors in American politics\, from Pennsylvania to Arizona. \nEffectively mobilizing the Latino electorate is critical to the success of any campaign\, from the White House to down-ballot. As we continue to confront our nation’s intersecting crises on our path to economic recovery\, understanding the electoral preferences of Latino voters is essential to highlighting the nation’s policy priorities in a new decade. This conversation will highlight how record levels of Latino turnout impacted the outcome of key races\, including in this cycle’s marquee battleground states\, and what it means for the coming year. \nJoin us virtually for a powerful conversation moderated by María Elena Salinas\, award winning-journalist. \nPanelists: \nMatt Barreto\, professor\, Political Science & Chicana/o Studies\, UCLA \nTom Perez\, chairman\, Democratic National Committee \nMercedes Schlapp\, senior advisor\, Trump-Pence 2020 Campaign \nRudy Soto\, former Democratic nominee for Congress \nRSVP today. \nPresented by the Aspen Institute’s Latinos and Society Program and the UCLA Latino Policy and Politics Initiative based at UCLA Luskin.

SEIU California represents 700\,000 workers on the frontlines\, including caregivers\, security officers\, janitors\, school workers distributing food\, healthcare workers\, nurses\, nursing home workers\, social workers\, and more. \nAs states and localities start to reopen the economy\, the continued health and economic burdens faced by frontline workers add to mounting evidence about the disparate impacts of COVID-19 on communities of color. According to research from UCLA LPPI\, in collaboration with the UCLA Center for Neighborhood Knowledge\, the coronavirus pandemic has deepened race and class inequalities\, and many workers of color are shut out of relief and recovery programs. Join us for a discussion about what it means to be a worker during COVID-19\, and how the pandemic can give rise to the genuine opportunity for all workers as we seek to rebuild our economy. \nJune 2\, 2020 \n10:30 – 11:45 a.m. \nRSVP \nUCLA LPPI and SEIU California will host a discussion with these expert voices: \nDiego Cartagena\, President and CEO of Bet Tzedek \nMaria Cabildo\, Senior Fellow at Advancement Project California \nDavid Huerta\, President of SEIU-USWW \nSonja Diaz\, Founding Director of UCLA Latino Policy and Politics Initiative URL:https://luskin.ucla.edu/event/role-of-workers-in-saving-lives LOCATION:Online CATEGORIES:Diversity,School of Public Affairs ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://luskin.ucla.edu/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/eventbrite-june-2.png ORGANIZER;CN="UCLA Latino Policy &%3B Politics Initiative":MAILTO:latino@luskin.ucla.edu END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
