We must condemn all threats of political violence, especially when they come from someone who has incited a violent attack on the Capitol.

This is what the administration does—blame immigrants for everything when they can’t keep their own promise to lower costs. 
 
If only they put that same energy to improving people’s lives.

Happy Kimchi Day! As we enjoy this beloved dish, let us celebrate the rich history, culture, and culinary traditions of the Korean American community—now a cherished part of the American table and in households around the world.

“We’ve had so many AAPIs of all legal statuses…who have been detained and deported,” said @jayapal.house.gov.

In the latest episode of Spill the Tea, CAPAC Immigration Taskforce Co-Chair Rep. Jayapal shares how President Trump’s inhumane immigration policies impact our community.

What a joke. 
 
Inflation is up. 
Prices are up. 
Unemployment is up. 
People can’t afford groceries or health care. 
 
The economy is about as “golden” as the fake gold in the White House.

Half of all immigrants feel less safe since Trump took office—citizens and noncitizens alike.

This administration has proven over and over; if you are an immigrant, they do not want you here.

Their policies are heartless and un-American.

This is what happens when you put a former wrestling executive in charge of education.

9 out of 10 kids in the U.S. rely on public schools. You are killing our children's future.
Trump administration announces dismantling of parts of Education Dept.
President Donald Trump signed an executive order in March seeking to close the department, but only Congress has the power to do that.

Across the country, Asian-owned businesses have been forced to raise prices by up to 50% thanks to Trump’s tariffs.

He doesn’t care about lowering your costs or helping small businesses stay afloat. He is choosing everything but the well-being of the American people.

CAPAC is thrilled to welcome @repwalkinshaw.bsky.social as an Associate Member!

Rep. Walkinshaw, who represents Virginia’s 11th Congressional District, will work tirelessly on behalf of his AANHPI constituents to ensure their voices are heard at the highest levels of government.

21 people have died while in ICE custody, with Asian immigrants accounting for nearly 1 in 4 of those deaths. This is absolutely horrifying and outrageous.

ICE continues to operate with lawlessness and cruelty. There must be accountability.
ICE deaths surge under Trump. Nearly 1 out of 4 are Asian – AsAmNews
Five Asian immigrants have died in ICE custody since Trump took office, with the overall death count rising to the highest in 20 years

The administration’s end-of-year report card is out — and spoiler alert: they flunked.

President Trump has not only failed to deliver for hardworking Americans, he is actively making our lives harder and more expensive.

Who do you think Trump’s really working for: you or himself?

CAPAC Chair @meng.house.gov Slams Senate Government Funding Bill:

President Trump promised to lower costs on Day 1.

Instead, prices are skyrocketing, law-abiding residents are being deported, and working families are being squeezed.

@jayapal.house.gov joins @meng.house.gov for a Spill the Tea episode on Trump's failure to deliver on his promises.

#OnThisDay in 1956, Dalip Singh Saund made history as the first Asian American, Indian American, and Sikh American elected to Congress.

He dedicated his career advocating for our community and fought to ensure Indian and Filipino immigrants could become U.S. citizens.

On Veterans Day, we honor the service and sacrifice of the millions of Americans who answered the call to serve.

Secretary Hegseth is restricting religious accommodations for facial hair in our military—forcing thousands of troops to choose between their faith or service.

@meng.house.gov and @reptedlieu.bsky.social are demanding Sec. Hegseth to protect religious freedom for our nation's servicemembers.

The cruelty is the point.

Filipino families are losing access to rental aid, food assistance, and veteran services—all because Congressional Republicans won’t return from their vacation and reopen the government.
November 8, 2025 at 1:49 PM
Indian American communities are tired of the chaos and corruption coming from President Trump and the Republican Majority.

Congressional Republicans need to come back from their vacations, lower costs, and reopen the government now!

House Republicans have not been in Washington, D.C. since September 19, 2025.

In any other workplace, walking off the job for seven weeks would get you fired.

$40 billion to bail out Argentina.

$0 to make Americans’ health care more affordable.

The administration’s priorities in a nutshell. What happened to “America First?”
November 7, 2025 at 3:08 PM
Nearly 42 million Americans—including 1 million AANHPIs—rely on SNAP to put food on the table, yet this Administration is threatening to cut SNAP benefits for political gain.

Trump is choosing to do this. And his decision is being felt across the country, including in Vietnamese communities.

Thanks to the Republican shutdown:

❌ Children aren't getting food assistance
❌ Families won't be able to warm their homes
❌ Kids will lose access to early childhood education

Chinese Americans are suffering because Republicans refuse to do their jobs.
