As the Trump administration continues its effort to crack down on immigration and slash government spending, a coalition of Latino leaders gathered outside Capitol Hill on Wednesday to map out their frustrations with the government's initiatives and outline next steps to address them. As the leaders spoke on different policies and proposals rolled out during Trump's first month in office, the message was clear: "ya basta!" (Enough!)
The press conference was organized by UnidosUS, the largest Latino advocacy organization in the country. It was attended by leading Hispanic organizations like Voto Latino, LULAC, Mi Familia Vota, and Hispanic lawmakers like Democratic Rep. Adriano Espaillat (D-NY-13), chair of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus.
