Dear Somos Primos readers. 



Other than Somos Primos notification, this is the first time that I
have sent out a letter to readers. I do this because of the importance
and potential of finally giving good historical
visibility of our Hispanic/Latino heritage in Washington, DC.



Attached is information concerning a Commission to Study the Potential
Creation of a National Museum of the American Latino Community Act of
2005.



It will be voted on March
30th.



It was sent by Rep. Javier Becerra, Democrat from California. 

Historical inclusion is a nonpartisan issue. 



The creation of a National Museum of the American Latino would finally
present out history where awareness is critical, in Washington, D.C.



Please contact the Representatives from your
state and send this information to all your friends, organizations,
co-workers, etc.  Ask them all to contact their representatives.  The
list of co-sponsors are included. 



Please act quickly.  Let your Representative
know that your history, our history. . . .  matters.



Hopeful for positive changes  . . .   Mimi
