The California Latino Legislative Caucus’s (CLLC) 50th anniversary Hispanic Heritage event that took place at the Orpheum Theatre in Los Angeles on October 6. Hollywood celebrities, current and past CLLC members and civic luminaries gathered together to celebrate the five decades of the CLLC, which is an organization made up of State Senate and Assembly members who identify key issues affecting Latinos and empower the Latino community throughout California. After years of seeking political representation, in the 1960s, the Latino community finally received recognition for their political organizing by entering the California State Legislature in 1962 through Phil Soto (1962-1966), a Democrat from La Puente, and John Moreno (1962-1964), a Democrat from Los Angeles.
