Hispanic group ‘La Raza’ won’t invite Trump, Clinton to national conference

America’s largest Hispanic civil rights group says it will not be inviting any presidential candidate to its national conference next month in Orlando.

In a statement Wednesday, Janet Murgua, president of the National Council of La Raza, said the decision was the result of Donald Trump’s “concerted effort to denigrate and demonize” immigrants and the Hispanic community.

Trump has pledged to build a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border and deport all 11 million immigrants in the country illegally. About two in three U.S. Hispanics are of Mexican descent.

For decades, NCLR, has invited candidates from both major parties. As a nonpartisan group, it said it could not invite Democrat Hillary Clinton without inviting Trump.
