Nine Latino GOP legislators have created the California Hispanic Legislative Caucus to champion priorities that, they say, diverge from those prioritized by their liberal colleagues.

The California Legislature now includes 44 Latino lawmakers, more than a third of all state lawmakers and the most ever, a group that includes a growing number of Republicans .

This isn't the first time Republicans have been excluded from the Democrat -led California Latino Legislative Caucus .

The Republican -led Hispanic Legislative Caucus will have nine members.

It is currently registered as a nonprofit and political action committee.

They await official recognition from legislative leadership and approval for "equal" funding.

Legislative leaders as of Friday afternoon were not available to answer whether they would approve that funding.
