LAS VEGAS — El sábado 11 de enero la organización Mi Familia Vota invitó al exvicepresidente, ahora candidato a la presidencia, Joe Biden a escuchar y responder a las preguntas planteadas por la comunidad. El evento tomó lugar en Rancho High School en Las Vegas, Nevada, donde se abordaron temas como la reforma migratoria, derechos a los trabajadores y educación.

Mi Familia Vota ha presentado una campaña, "Prioridades 2020" que busca "hold presidential candidates accountable" hacer a los candidatos responsables de sus propuestas invitándoles a escuchar los problemas de la comunidad a través de las preguntas elaboradas por los mismos asistentes.

Prioridades 2020 es una campaña que invita a todos los candidatos, previamente se le entrevisto al candidato Tom Steyer y se espera contar con el apoyo del resto de los candidatos.

Mi Familia Vota es una organización sin fines de lucro que promueve la "justicia social y económica" a través de sus talleres de ciudadanía, el registro de votantes y el programa de liderazgo juvenil.

Durante el evento, CEO y director ejecutivo de Mi Familia Vota, Héctor Sánchez Barba moderó las preguntas entre ellas la siguiente "¿Qué podemos esperar de usted en el tema de deportación si usted se convierte en presidente"

"La gente que regresará a la escuela serán los agentes de I.C.E., se reeducarán... Nadie será deportado bajo mi administración mientras no hayan cometido ningún delito," Biden respondió.

Seguido de los aplausos y entusiasmo por la mayor parte de los asistentes, Sanchez Barba prosiguió con las preguntas. Pese a que no se pudieron abordar el resto de las preguntas que se le tenían preparadas al ex vicepresidente, la organización agradeció al candidato por darse un tiempo en su agenda para escuchar lo que preocupa a la comunidad Latina.

A este evento fueron invitados un grupo de jóvenes estudiantes de Arizona. Ahí, varios pudieron interactuar con el candidato a través de las preguntas que estos pudieron presentar al candidato antes del evento.

Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part.
