We are proud to be at the forefront of grassroots organizing for Hillary and expect to turn out strong support on caucus night," said Senator Paula Sandoval, a member of the Colorado Hispanic Leadership Committee.

Mannie Rodriguez, a member of Hillary Clinton's Colorado Steering Committee and Hispanic Leadership Council said Clinton's momentum is growing.
