Californians are proud to call the visionary Congressman Roybal one of our own. But his contribution was not limited to Hispanics or Californians. Congressman Roybals vision and passion for social justice issues transcended color lines. age groups and district and State boundaries. He worked tirelessly to extend the civil rights and push the Democratic Party to become more attuned to the needs of immigrants and minorities. In addition to all the legislation he fought for and all the programs he sponsored. Congressman Roybal will also be remembered because of the legion of public servants he inspired. One of those. a man who fought for equal rights for farm workers of California. was a young man in San Jose named Cesar Chavez.
