Manuel Rendon, 19, of Frisco, Texas, right, looks toward council president Hector Luna, left, as he addresses members during a meeting of the Collin County LULAC Young Adults Council #4780 at Collin County Community College in Plano, Texas, Thursday, Feb. 7, 2008. The American-born son of Mexican immigrants, Rendon, came of legal age in the midst of rallies across the country for immigration reform and quickly registered to vote. "Once I turned 18, I knew that was the one way to have my voice heard and to really make an impact. So it wasn't just my right, it was my duty," said Rendon. (AP Photo/Tony Gutierrez)
