Expressing support for increasing the number of Latino students and young professionals entering careers in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics fields.

HRES 762 is a non-binding House resolution expressing congressional support for increasing Latino representation in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) careers. It highlights that Latinos make up 18% of the U.S. workforce but only 8% of STEM workers, despite growing population and interest in STEM fields. The resolution cites challenges like unmet financial needs (70% of Latino students) and notes STEM job growth (10.8%) outpaces non-STEM sectors. It formally acknowledges the underrepresentation in STEM, encourages federal support for initiatives targeting Latino students, and recognizes Hispanic-serving institutions' role - without creating new programs or funding.
