Leaders will share on-the-ground experiences, partnerships with Congress, and recommendations for advancing racial and Latino equity at the federal level. 

The panel will feature remarks from a group of coalition leaders, followed by an open conversation with invited guests. 

Date: Wednesday, February 4th
