🗣️ LCLAA responds to last night’s State of the Union with verdad, an unwavering commitment to nuestra comunidad, and a clear call to action. Visit our website to read the full statement: https://bit.ly/4b9lKnK #LCLAA #SOTU #StateOfTheUnion #OurRightsOurSOTU

Families were told that higher pay and more jobs were on the way. But wages aren’t keeping up with inflation or the rising cost of living, and opportunities remain limited in many industries. #DemandTheFacts #StateOfTheUnion #OurRightsOurSOTU #LCLAA

Workers were promised a manufacturing comeback, but many are still facing layoffs, fewer hours, and uncertainty. Investments and announcements mean little if jobs aren’t stable, wages aren’t growing, and families can’t count on steady work. #DemandTheFacts #StateOfTheUnion #OurRightsOurSOTU #LCLAA

Healthcare was supposed to become more affordable, yet premiums, deductibles, and prescription costs remain high. Promises of lower costs haven’t translated into measurable relief at the household level. #DemandTheFacts #StateOfTheUnion #OurRightsOurSOTU #LCLAA

If trade deals were truly “fixed,” we would see sustained manufacturing growth. Instead, key industries remain weak, tariffs raised costs for businesses and consumers, and there’s been no nationwide job surge. #DemandTheFacts #StateOfTheUnion #OurRightsOurSOTU #LCLAA

Today, 52% of families can’t cover basic living costs, nearly half of renters spend over 30% of their income on housing, childcare averages $13,000 a year, and nearly 3 in 10 Americans delay medical care because of cost. #DemandTheFacts #StateOfTheUnion #OurRightsOurSOTU

When leaders say, “We’re targeting the worst of the worst,” the American people envision individuals convicted of serious violent crimes. But the data tells a different story: the vast majority of detained immigrants have no violent conviction. #DemandTheFacts #StateOfTheUnion #OurRightsOurSOTU

Students and parents were promised stronger schools and better outcomes. Instead, federal education funding has been reduced, key student programs eliminated, and critical research disrupted. #DemandTheFacts #StateOfTheUnion #OurRightsOurSOTU #LCLAA

With mortgage rates still elevated, homeownership now requires significantly more than the median household income in many regions — underscoring the urgent need for serious housing supply and affordability reforms. #DemandTheFacts #StateOfTheUnion #OurRightsOurSOTU #LCLAA

In agriculture, where about 20% of farm income comes from exports and roughly half the workforce is immigrant labor, trade tensions and labor disruptions can squeeze farmers and drive up food prices — costs families ultimately feel at the grocery store. #DemandTheFacts #StateOfTheUnion

We all want safe neighborhoods and strong communities where families feel protected. True public safety isn’t built through sweeping raids or slogans — it’s built through trust, accountability, and policies that keep families secure. #DemandTheFacts #StateOfTheUnion #OurRightsOurSOTU #LCLAA

LCLAA Florida familia, friends, members, and allies — farmworkers need us! 🥶💙 Together, we can show up for the communities that feed our nation. 💪🏽❤️ #apopka #fellsmere #pierson #immokalee #homesteadfl
