Global Conversations DIGITAL: Latino Immigrants and the Minnesota Economy

Minnesota Latinos are integral to economies in both the Twin Cities metro and greater Minnesota. As one of the fastest-growing minority groups, Latinos comprise an increasingly important segment of Minnesota’s workforce and have one of the highest labor force participation rates in the state.
