Good news . . . the US House hearing for the establishing a new national
museum in D.C. dedicated to Latino arts, history, and culture went quite
well. I will try and get the information about what the Senate is doing
for the May issue.
Thanks for your articles, tidbits, family information, and kind
letters. It is your sharing that adds to the variety in Somos Primos.
Warm regards, Mimi
