We had the great opportunity to attend the Asian American Advancing Justice National Summit hosted by Advancing Justice Atlanta. The theme was “Raise Your Voice As We Rise,” and it was an honor to be in community with brilliant AAPI leaders and allies from across the country.

There is a dangerous pair of bills moving through the House of Representatives, HB 4233 and 4234, that once barred Chinese and Japanese Americans from owning land in the U.S. Contact your state reps and demand that they vote no on HB 4233 and 4234: bit.ly/MiALLAction
