Dear Familia,

Next month, our Caucus is convening in Oklahoma City for our 23rd Annual Summit. This year, besides voting for our resolutions during the Annual Meeting, we will also elect our organization’s new leadership, who will serve alongside President-Elect Rep. Juan Candelaria (CT).

As I conclude my tenure as your President, I want to take a moment to reflect on the work we have done together and my hopes for the future. From coming together in favor of better immigration policies, to investing in our health equity work through the Quad Caucus, and navigating two years of very difficult legislative sessions, my time as President has been filled with unprecedented challenges both for our organization and our communities.

But I have also seen each and every one of you take a step forward for your constituents by showing up, introducing legislation, reaching consensus and working every single day to make their lives better. And that, at the end of the day, is what public service really is about. I look forward to seeing you all in Oklahoma next month.

This will be my final convening as your President, and I’m truly excited to celebrate with you, reflect on all that we’ve accomplished together and pass the torch to the new NHCSL leadership during our Noche de Celebración.

Respectfully,

Rep. Angela Romero (UT)
NHCSL President
