It is evident that immigration is a major concern in Minnesota and in the United States. In order to correct any shortcomings that might have inherently developed in current U.S. Immigration Policy, a comprehensive reform plan is needed. The CLAC supports a reform plan that meets and addresses the economic and social welfare of the state's immigrant communities and lives up to the promise of opportunity and value of equality in America. Additionally, the CLAC will continue to:  

Work with the state government and present current and accurate information on how immigration reform impacts Minnesota's Latino community;  

Build a Latino community of solidarity and instill credibility and faith in the democratic process;  

Educate the general public about the contributions that Latinos have made to Minnesota's economy, culture, and society;  

Enlighten the general community about Latinos' ancestry in Minnesota for generations dating back to 1860;  

Promote awareness and understanding of common ground vital for a progressive Minnesota.
