Abstract

This paper examines the current representation of Hispanics in state government throughout the United States. The analysis explores Hispanic educational attainment in relation to representative bureaucracies in state government. The findings of this paper suggest further research to be conducted in explaining bureaucratic representation beyond Hispanic growth rates in demographics. Bureaucratic representation appears to be challenged by underlying factors that relate to the attainment of a critical mass in state government demographics. ..PAT.-Unpublished Manuscript [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
