The Harris-Walz campaign has received the first-ever presidential endorsement from the League of United Latin American Citizens, the oldest and largest Latino civil rights group in the country.
The endorsement breaks from the 95-year-old group’s practice of not endorsing in presidential races, and LULAC leaders are expected to make an appearance at a campaign rally in Las Vegas on Saturday.
The endorsement was made through the group’s political action committee, the LULAC Adelante PAC. LULAC said in its statement that its local chapters, or councils, will work to rally support for the Democratic ticket, especially in key swing states. The organization has 535 councils and 140,000 members, 86 percent of which are registered to vote, it said.
Julie Chavez Rodriguez, Harris-Walz 2024 campaign manager, said the campaign was honored to earn LULAC’s endorsement, in a statement to NBC, which first reported the endorsement.
