Arlington County Board Member J. Walter Tejada was one of the leaders of the Latino and Jewish community who will join together in Richmond on February 1 to lobby Virginia Legislators on behalf of immigrants rights and access to education, according to a press release.
This effort is sponsored by VACOLAO (Virginia Coalition of Latino Organizations) and the American Jewish Committee (AJC). "The two teams prepared together for the lobbying session and are scheduled to meet a number of legislators during the all-day session, the first of many programs of advocacy, training, and education planned for the coming 12 months."
Tejada is a former Chair of the Virginia Latino Advisory Commission.
