@NBCAsianAmerica The United States at its best has always been a beacon of opportunity for people around the world. It’s this hope for excellence and opportunity that brought my father to America. #AAPI2020
@NBCAsianAmerica Immigration is central to the American story. It’s time to reverse the cruel, counterproductive policies of this administration, welcome immigrants to our shores, and make sure that they can access every opportunity our country offers. #AAPI2020
@NBCAsianAmerica We need to reduce the family-based visa backlog, increase the number of family reunification visas, and eliminate discriminatory per-country caps. #AAPI2020
@NBCAsianAmerica To dismantle the barriers that AAPIs face, we have to understand the specific challenges each distinct AAPI community and individual faces. In education, this means collecting disaggregated data on teacher hiring, student outcomes, and the student experience. #AAPI2020
@NBCAsianAmerica In health care, this means increasing investments to research health disparities for AAPI communities and ensuring that all research programs report disaggregated data. #AAPI2020
@NBCAsianAmerica To lift up low-income AAPI communities we will empower workers and raise the minimum wage to $15, invest $10 billion to support small business owners and entrepreneurs from underrepresented backgrounds, and create 3 million more jobs in underserved communities. #AAPI2020
