RNC Chairman Reince Priebus, following a conference call on the Committee’s efforts to engage Hispanics in 2012, released the names of 6 new Hispanic outreach state directors:
Colorado: Lizbeth Norris-Cohen
Florida: Pablo Pantoja
Nevada: Elsa Barnhill
New Mexico: Paulo Sibaja
North Carolina: Neri Martinez
Virginia: Jeyben Castro
“Within the coming months, the RNC will tirelessly work to engage the Hispanic community not only in battleground states but across the United States,” Priebus said in a statement. “With the unemployment rate for Hispanics over ten percent, two points higher than the national average, Hispanics across the country are frustrated with rising gas prices and skyrocketing debt.”
