The highest-ranking Hispanic elected official in the State of Maryland is now running for attorney general. He made a reputation for himself as a passionate crusader for the underprivileged working as federal prosecutor.
The Washington Post describes him as the underdog in the race, without the campaign financing of the lead contender.
He was elected to the Montgomery County Council on 5 November 2002 and served as Council president from 7 December 2004 through 6 December 2005.
A graduate of Brown University, Harvard Law School and the John F. Kennedy School of Government, he began his career in the US Department of Justice's Civil Rights Division and rose through the ranks to become Deputy Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights.
During the last two years of the Clinton administration, he was director of the Office of Civil Rights at the Department of Health and Human Services. With the change of administration, he joined the faculty of the University of Maryland School of Law.
