NALEO - Ya Es Hora - Now is the time:
The Ya Es Hora (Now is the time) campaign is a historic non-partisan Latino civic participation campaign launched by the NALEO Educational Fund as the Latino
community’s action-oriented follow-up to the immigrant mobilizations of
2006. The campaign represents the largest and most comprehensive effort
to incorporate Latinos as full participants in the American political
process and was expanded in 2009 to include NALEO's national initiative to achieve a full Latino Count in the 2010 Census.
