No More Time to Delay: It’s Time for Latinos to Sign Up for the Affordable Care Act

Vanessa Cárdenas writes on Latinos and the Affordable Care Act.

Last week, President Obama held a historic town hall hosted by the leading Spanish language outlets – Univision, impreMedia and Telemundo – to impress upon the Latino community the importance of enrolling for healthcare ahead of the March 31st deadline.

This town hall, unprecedented in its reach, aimed to highlight how important healthcare access is for the Latino community given its healthcare needs. The town hall was rebroadcast nationwide Saturday, March 8th on Univision and Telemundo.

Already the Affordable Care Act is benefiting the community.
