Growing Latino Representation in State Legislature
Latino elected leaders, both past and present, play a big role in Latino heritage.
The first two Latinos in the California State Legislature were Phil Coto and John Moreno, both elected to the Assembly in 1962.
They were pioneers who paved the way for fellow Latinos to rise through the ranks in California politics. A decade later, a total of five Latino assembly members recognized their unified strength and formed the Chicano Legislative Caucus, a significant turning point in the political empowerment of the Latino community.
