    Hotel Yorba’s Next Chapter Is Still Unwritten — And Detroiters Want a Say

    A long-vacant Detroit YMCA Has New Ownership With a Plan to Restore It

    A diverse group of approximately twelve people celebrate inside a Detroit public transit bus (numbered 2527). Two women are prominently featured in the foreground—one wearing a black and white plaid blazer on the left, the other in a black blazer with glasses on the right—both smiling and gesturing. Additional passengers stand and sit throughout the bus behind them, several wearing blue clothing. Yellow handrails and support poles frame the scene, with red banners visible that read "Believe Your Story." Windows show the street outside, and the interior has blue-gray seating.

A coalition of Latino advocacy organizations is leading the way in engaging, educating, and empowering the 400,000 eligible Latino voters in Michigan to play a decisive role in the upcoming elections. With only weeks to go before Election Day, a coalition of eight leading Latino Michigan nonprofits gathered in Detroit last Wednesday, October 16 to highlight the work they’re doing to mobilize Latino voters across the state.

From Holland to Detroit, and Flint to Kalamazoo, the organizations are working together to engage, educate, and expand the Latino electorate, and ensure that Latino Michigan voters play a decisive role in determining the outcome of state and national races.

The coalition members — consisting of the Detroit Hispanic Development Center, Latin Americans United for Progress (LAUP), Voces, El Concilio, Centro La Familia Multicultural, Hispanic Center of Western Michigan, Latinx Center, and Buenos Vecinos — were joined by the Hispanic Federation, which announced a $135,000 grant to the group to continue growing its critical work.

Hispanic Federation President and CEO Frankie Miranda also announce the findings of the organization’s latest survey on Latino voters in battleground states, with a focus on how Latinos in Michigan view the presidential candidates and the top issues motivating them to vote.

According to the survey of more than 1,900 Latinos in the battleground states, the top voter concerns include Cost of Living, Reproductive Rights, Sensible Gun Control and Climate Change.

In a press release from the coalition, organizers stated that Latinos overwhelmingly support progressive policies and are motivated to vote for candidates who protect their rights and promote equality. With 71% of Latino voters planning to head to the polls, the 2024 election could be decided by Latino voters.  

Coalition members stressed that the 2024 election is right around the corner and it’s time to make sure Latino voices are heard loud and clear.

The detailed survey results can be found online at:   https://www.hispanicfederation.org/…/hispanic…/

A pocas semanas del día de las elecciones, una coalición de ocho importantes ONG latinas de Michigan se reunió en Detroit el miércoles 16 de octubre, para destacar su esfuerzo por movilizar a los votantes latinos en todo el estado.

Desde Holland hasta Detroit y desde Flint hasta Kalamazoo, las organizaciones están trabajando juntas para involucrar, educar y expandir al electorado latino, y garantizar que desempeñen un papel decisivo en los resultados de las elecciones estatales y nacionales.

Los miembros de la coalición, que consiste en el Detroit Hispanic Development Center, Latin Americans United for Progress (LAUP), Voces, El Concilio, Centro Multicultural La Familia, Centro Hispano del Oeste de Michigan, Latinx Center y Buenos Vecinos, se unieron a la Federación Hispana (Hispanic Federation) que dará una subvención de $135,000 para que continúen con esa crítica labor.

El presidente y director ejecutivo de la Federación Hispana, Frankie Miranda, también anunció los resultados de la última encuesta de la organización sobre los votantes latinos en los estados en disputa, con un enfoque en cómo los latinos en Michigan ven a los candidatos presidenciales y los principales problemas que los motivan a votar.

Según la encuesta de más de 1,900 latinos en los estados en disputa, las principales preocupaciones de los votantes incluyen el costo de vida, los derechos reproductivos, el control sensato de armas y el cambio climático.

En un comunicado de prensa de la coalición, los organizadores afirmaron que los latinos apoyan abrumadoramente las políticas progresistas y están motivados a votar por candidatos que protejan sus derechos y promueven la igualdad. Con el 71% de los votantes latinos planeando acudir a las urnas, las elecciones de 2024 podrían ser decididas por ellos.

Los miembros de la coalición enfatizaron que las elecciones de 2024 están a la vuelta de la esquina y es hora de asegurarse de que las voces latinas se escuchen alto y claro.

Los resultados detallados de la encuesta se pueden encontrar en línea en: https://www.hispanicfederation.org/…/hispanic…/
