CHICAGO - Governor Bruce Rauner today met with Lieutenant Governor Evelyn Sanguinetti, State Senator Martin Sandoval, State Representative Luis Arroyo, Department of Labor Director Hugo Chaviano, Jovita Carranza, Lazaro Lopez and Manny Sanchez at the first Latino Working Group meeting.
This working group is being convened to create a forum for the governor and lieutenant governor to work with Latino members of the General Assembly and Latino members in the administration to focus on issues of concern to Latino families and businesses.
"The goal of this working group is to drive the Turnaround Agenda and make positive short-term and long-term differences to benefit the Latino community throughout Illinois," Rauner said. "We need to empower Latinos and give them the tools and every opportunity to succeed."
"Governor Rauner sent a powerful message to the Latino community when he selected me as his lieutenant governor," Sanguinetti said. "I will continue to work hard to ensure the Latino community thrives here in Illinois."
