On this day in 1882, the Chinese Exclusion Act took effect—marking the first major law to restrict immigration based on race. Yet over a century later, we are seeing a return to immigration policy fueled by xenophobia. We CANNOT repeat this shameful chapter in our history.

The Trump administration hired a staffer who posted a photo of Asian tourists with the hashtags #kimjongil #pearlharborwasbad. They also hired a DOGE staffer who said to "normalize Indian hate." These workers would have been fired at any other job. Trump rewards them instead.

In a few moments, the House will vote on H.R. 881, a bill that would punish universities simply for having something like a study abroad program in China. I’m urging a NO vote. This bill is government overreach that does nothing to safeguard national security, but does give the

On today’s Democratic Daily Download, Rep. Nydia Velazquez breaks down what we heard in today’s Steering and Policy hearing: Trump Tariffs are driving up costs and crushing Main Street.   Democrats are fighting to protect small businesses and everyday Americans.

This #AANHPI Heritage Month, CAPAC is showcasing members from our 81-strong caucus!   We’re kicking things off with Chair Emerita Judy Chu, the first Chinese American woman elected to Congress. ⬇️

Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders have made—and continue to make—invaluable contributions to our nation. Grace Meng and @SenHirono are proud to introduce a resolution to honor our community’s achievements and recognize May as AANHPI Heritage Month.

My statement on the events that occurred at Delaney Hall today:

This Small Business Week, CAPAC is proud to celebrate the 3 million AANHPI-owned businesses across the nation. We will continue to stand up to Trump’s reckless tariffs that are raising prices and fight to ensure small business owners have the resources they need to thrive.

CAPAC Statement on Incident at ICE Detention Facility in Newark, New Jersey:

Today is #AANHPI Mental Health Day.   Suicide is one of the leading causes of death for AANHPI youth & we must treat this crisis with the urgency it deserves.   Senator Mazie Hirono and Judy Chu’s bill will expand mental health support for AANHPIs.

This week, millions around the world gather to honor the birth of Siddhartha Gautama — the Buddha. May his teachings continue to inspire peace in our hearts and kindness in our actions. 🪷 #Vesak #BuddhaDay

It’s 3:30 AM in DC and Ways and Means Democrats Democrats are STILL fighting the #GOPTaxScam. We offered amendments to remove the giveaways for those making $400K, $10M, $100M, and even $1 BILLION. Republicans blocked all of them. This isn’t tax reform. It’s theft for the rich.

Ways and Means passed the Republican budget bill, which threatens millions of Americans' health care. Not long ago, it seemed like the Affordable Care Act would be repealed, but it was saved by a single vote. Rep. Jimmy Gomez, Ways and Means Democrats, and I won't stop fighting.

Folks like Philip depend on Medicaid to live with dignity and give back to their communities. But Republicans want to gut Medicaid and rip healthcare away from millions of vulnerable people to give more tax cuts to billionaires. The shame and sham of it all. #HandsOffMedicaid

It’s hour 21 of this Energy & Commerce Democrats markup and I have been fighting back all night against Republican cuts to Medicaid. Because I know exactly what these cuts mean for my constituents. Republicans need to realize: their bill robs people of a fighting chance. Around 4:30 this

If Republicans slash Medicaid and ACA, nearly 14 million Americans could lose their health care. 14 million people. Only 4 states have populations larger than 14 million. Imagine entire states without health insurance. It is ludicrous Republicans are even considering this.

Huge thanks to APAICS for hosting me at their annual awards gala! I was so proud to see so many accomplished AANHPI leaders recognized. As a proud Member of CAPAC, I will always work to uplift our AANHPI communities.

“There should be no attempts to limit birthright citizenship. The Constitution protects this right. The Supreme Court should be in line with the Constitution.” — Grace Meng CAPAC

Today is the 31st anniversary of the founding of both APAICS and CAPAC by Secretary Norman Y. Mineta and former Delegate Robert Underwood. Together, we are building a robust pipeline of AA & NH/PI leaders to pursue public service at all levels of government.

My feeling when Republicans don't have the votes to take healthcare away from 13.7 million people and blow up our annual deficits.
