Fourteen years ago, a gunman with white supremacist ties opened fire at a gurdwara in Oak Creek, Wisconsin, killing seven people in the deadliest act of anti-Sikh hate in U.S. history. We #RememberOakCreek by honoring the lives lost and rejecting hate in all its forms.

The American people deserve leaders who put the needs of everyday Americans first, not last.

The Grammys' new category sidelines Asian artists and sends a message that they don’t belong in the same conversations as their Western peers. It’s an insult to BTS—one of the most successful groups in the world—and they deserve better.

BTS Won’t Submit Music For Next Grammys In Opposition To New Asian Pop Category

The Grammys’ CEO defended the decision to create the new Asian Pop category amid criticism from BTS, who said they don’t want to be “categorized by region or language.”

On this day in 1965, President LBJ signed Medicare and Medicaid into law. Today, 4.5 million AANHPIs rely on Medicaid, and nearly 3 million rely on Medicare, yet Republicans passed the largest cuts to these programs in U.S. history. It's a complete betrayal to our communities.

It’s time to spill (the beans). ☕️ The latest episode of Spill the Tea is OUT featuring @congressmin.bsky.social and a special twist. Watch the video at the link in the bio.

This is an attack on our legal immigration system and flies in the face of our nation’s values. Upholding the right to seek asylum is not only a legal obligation—it is a moral one.

Asylum seekers could be sent directly to deportation court under new rule

The Trump administration rule, which took effect immediately, could transfer nearly 450,000 cases to immigration judges, who could dismiss the asylum petitions.

AANHPIs account for more than 50% of hepatitis B cases in the U.S. and are 5x more likely to die from hepatitis B-related diseases than non-Hispanic White people. This #WorldHepatitisDay, let's work toward a future where everyone has access to the care they need.

No child should ever go to sleep hungry—yet President Trump and Congressional Republicans’ Big Ugly Bill ripped away food assistance from more than 1.5 million kids. Why? So they could pay for tax cuts for their billionaire donors. This is cruelty by design.

President Trump’s war of choice must end.

House Republicans refuse to carry out one of the basic duties of Congress: funding the government. But when the president asks for a blank check for endless wars, they move with lightning speed.

@jayapal.house.gov is right. The Republicans' so-called congressional stock trading ban is a sham. Their bill still allows Members of Congress to own and sell stocks. It's political theater. Meanwhile, Speaker Johnson continues to block her bill that would actually ban the practice.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.gov · 2w ago

Republicans are bringing a weak-ass bill to the floor that’s called the “Stop Insider Trading Act.” Except it does NOT actually stop insider trading. If Republicans actually wanted to stop congressional stock trading, they’d pass our bipartisan Restore Trust in Congress Act.

Rep. Mace’s racist, bigoted resolution does nothing to address or solve the real discrimination facing our communities. Its only purpose is to invoke anger and division.

Joint Statement from Tri-Caucus, Democratic Leadership on Mace Resolution:

Why did the judges improperly grade a Sikh student’s correct responses as wrong? Why did they refuse to put up a live scoreboard? Why did the Department of Education refuse to conduct a review?    This Trump-led civics competition has the words RIGGED written all over it.

Suspicion and Doubt at the National Civics Contest

America’s finest young scholars competed to mark their country's birthday. It led to a disputed finish in the age of mistrust.

There are 430,000 DREAMers from Asia and over 10,000 TPS holders from Myanmar and Nepal living in the U.S. They deserve the chance to live, work, and contribute to our country without the constant threat of deportation. Congress must pass the American Dream and Promise Act.

This is the devastating result of anti-Muslim hate being normalized by our nation's leaders. We wish Syed Sohail Uddin a speedy recovery. Islamophobia has no place in our communities, and it is on all of us to condemn it unequivocally.

Dreamers, TPS holders, and DED recipients have built lives, families, and careers in the U.S. They deserve permanent protection, not the constant threat of detention and deportation. Congress must pass the American Dream and Promise Act.

Republicans in Congress must stop enabling these abuses.

Fox News host Jesse Watters joked about soldiers raping Asian women on national television. This is exactly the kind of vile, misogynistic rhetoric that dehumanizes Asian women and fuels real-world violence against them. Fox News, do you condone this behavior?

Two people were shot and killed by ICE agents last week. Their families deserve justice. CAPAC Chair @meng.house.gov joined nearly 200 Members of Congress in demanding an immediate, independent investigation into both of these tragic deaths. ICE must be held accountable.

ICE agents, dressed in plain clothes and wearing no visible identification, tackled an elderly Asian man to the ground at an airport. If these officers are acting lawfully, why are they hiding their identities? Why did they flee?

CAPAC Chair @meng.house.gov Condemns ICE Incident at Las Vegas Airport:

Six years ago, we lost Congressman John Lewis — a civil rights icon who spent his life fighting for every American's right to vote. He asked us to get into 'good trouble.' Today, we honor him by doing exactly that and continuing the fight to protect voting rights.

Don’t be fooled.

Two people are dead. Administration officials paused these traffic stops days ago, but Trump wants to bring them back. Does he even care if people get hurt or killed?

Trump says ICE should do traffic stops, despite new suspension after shootings

President Donald Trump said ICE should continue traffic stops after two deadly shootings in Biddeford, Maine, and Houston, seeming to contradict a new policy to halt them.
