The push is part of a broader change in strategy for Hispanic leaders. The movement built up its power as the fastest growing Democratic voting bloc in the country, one Obama himself relied on in both of his presidential campaigns.

This is a sore point between blacks & Hispanics; when X number of workers or students have to be preferred minorities or women, too many employers are opting for Hispanics. Government is no exception; they could hire equal numbers of both, and in short order it would be predominantly Hispanic (primarily due to cultural differences).
