United Latinos was incorporated with the Secretary of State in 2009 by Latinos who shared a common interest in the democratic process. Prior to that United Latinos was organized as United Latinos Political Association of California. That organization went dormant in 1994 and was revived by Mauricio E. Leiva and Bernardo Buenrostro in 2008. Bart Liriano Chavez and Arturo Aleman joined them in 2009 and it was decided to change the name of the organization to United Latinos, Promoviendo Accion Civica. In February of 2010 the new full Board of Directors was installed by the Honorable Jaime Roman, Judge of the California Superior Court of Sacramento County. Keynote speaker of that event was Assemblyman Alberto Torrico, Majority Leader.

This organization is made up of individuals that have embraced their civic duty by participating in their community. The current board of directors has over 120 years of making a difference by committing to a cause in numerous grass root and national organizations. United Latinos actively secured these individuals to bring their talents and lead by example.

The organization is committed in encouraging Latinos to get involved with the democratic process and provide a vehicle to assist in their commitment to achieve a higher representation of Latino voices.
