This months Informational Meeting will feature Orlando Sanchez of the Texas Latino Conservatives.

Texas Latino Conservatives believes that the future of Texas will be more Hispanic, and more conservative. We are building this future by mobilizing Latino voters to elect and re-elect conservative candidates, recruiting, training, and supporting qualified conservative Latino candidates for local, county, and statewide office, managing issue-based campaigns designed to connect first with compassion and then mobilize voters, and launch long-term education campaign communicating shared conservative values.

Orlando Sanchez (born 14 October 1957 in Havana, Cuba) is an American politician, elected three times as Treasurer of Harris County, Texas (2006), 2010, and 2014.

A naturalized citizen, Sanchez has made political history as the first Latino immigrant to be elected to a citywide position in Houston, when he won the at-large seat on the city council, to which he was twice re-elected in consecutive terms, serving 1995–2001. In 2001 and 2003 he ran for mayor of Houston, gaining an alliance with Republican Anglos and generating high voter turnout in the Hispanic community. Both times he made it to the runoffs. When elected as Treasurer of Harris County, he was the first Latino immigrant to win a countywide, non-judicial elected office in that county.
