The Reverend Samuel Rodriguez, president of the National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference, released a statement in response to the State of the Union calling for unity.

"There has been far too much finger pointing and 'gotcha politics' being played in Washington in recent times. The schoolyard routine of racing to be the first to accuse the other side of wrongdoing, will never solve our problems," stated Rodriguez.

"We must work together, Democrats and Republicans, independents and Libertarians, the Green Party and the Tea Party, to care for the both Dreaming child and the unborn; for the addict and the inmate; for the alien on our shores and the native-born forgotten man and woman."
