Maryland Gov. Wes Moore promised to give Latinos power in his administration. Here’s where things stand.

Last November, Democratic state Del. Joseline A. Peña-Melnyk said she’d never seen a candidate as dedicated to engaging Latino voters as her party’s gubernatorial nominee, Wes Moore. As the Moore administration takes shape, her enthusiasm over the inclusion of Latino voices is evident. “The cabinet is very diverse and you can see he has been very intentional about it, which is really wonderful and a great example for many other people to follow,” Peña-Melnyk said. “I know that this transition team has emphasized bringing our community to the table, every community to the table.”
