“Our thoughts and prayers are with the people of Mexico City in the aftermath of these devastating earthquakes. The images and stories of human suffering are heart-breaking. Families and friends of the Latino community across our nation are living in México and we must work together to provide humanitarian aid. We must all offer the people of Mexico support in their time of need, just as they have to us during some of our nation’s most trying times,” said Hector Sanchez Barba, Chair of NHLA and Executive Director of the Labor Council for Latin American Advancement.
