Recognizing and commemorating the contributions of contemporary Latinas in the State of Illinois.

Sponsored By: Representative Ramirez, Delia C. [D-IL-3]

Introduced

Summary

Recognition of contemporary Latinas' contributions in Illinois would celebrate their civic and community impact and highlight gaps in political representation. The resolution cites about 32.2 million Latinas in the U.S. and about 1.2 million in Illinois. It notes Latinas are 9.6% of the U.S. population but hold just 2.6% of State and 3.6% of Federal elected offices. It lists Illinois Latinas in local and State posts, credits them with expanding women's rights and health care for undocumented people, and calls for accurate Census data.
