Just this week, we brought hundreds of Indian and South Asian Americans to Capitol Hill to remind Congress of a simple truth: we belong. We showed up because our president consistently traffics in hate. And we will keep organizing, advocating, and building power in response.

The Supreme Court hears oral arguments today in Trump v. Barbara. This executive order is a direct assault on the Constitution and birthright citizenship, threatening thousands of South Asian and immigrant families. We stand firm—we belong here and we will never stop fighting.

Through the Rainbow Coalition, Rev. Jesse Jackson intentionally brought Asian Americans into a shared multiracial movement for voting rights, anti-racism, and economic justice. He also urged the U.S. to send COVID vaccines to India when it mattered most. May he rest in power.

This is pure, unabashed bigotry. If a politician said this about any other faith, they would rightfully be run out of their party. But this kind of despicable anti-Muslim rhetoric is so normalized that a sitting Senator uses it without consequence. A stain on our Congress.
