According to the Center for the Study of Organized Hate, Islamophobic speech has surged to new extremes since the US–Israel war on Iran, including calls for violence, demands for internment, and threats toward mosques.
Ogles’ Muslim‑ban bill + saying Muslims “don’t belong” = a Constitutional oath violated and communities targeted for hate. Muslim, South Asian, Arab & other communities deserve safety, not persecution. If we allow discrimination today, it spreads tomorrow.
We mourn the passing of former Hawaii Rep. Colleen Hanabusa, who died at 74. Hanabusa served in the U.S. House of Representatives and was the first woman to lead the Hawaii State Senate.
We honor her legacy of leadership and public service.

The so-called SAVE America Act will make it harder for women, people of color, low-income Americans, deployed servicemembers, individuals with disabilities, and people with limited English proficiency to vote.
It's voter suppression. Full stop. #SOTU
The administration paused visa processing for 75 countries, attacked birthright citizenship, halted asylum decisions, and even canceled naturalization ceremonies.
It was never about coming here the 'right way.' #SOTU
President Trump is spewing more racist lies. Calling Somali Americans pirates and thieves is despicable and beneath the dignity of the office of the President. #SOTU
Trump's "election security" agenda is voter suppression targeting election workers, intimidating voters of color, and eroding the Voting Rights Act and pushing the SAVE and SAVE American Acts to consolidate power under the guise of fraud prevention. #SOTU
By rolling back premium tax credits and tightening enrollment windows, the administration has made healthcare unaffordable for millions. This broader dismantling of the Affordable Care Act has left millions with no place to actually receive care. #SOTU

This Day of Remembrance we ask you to join us as we fight for the promise of an America in which the rights of all people, regardless of race, nationality, or immigration status, are honored.
The memory of Japanese American incarceration is a political act - one that continues to inform our fight for justice.
"discourage the occurrence of similar injustices and violations of civil liberties in the future."
This Day of Remembrance, we revisit how the legacy of Japanese American incarceration shapes our fight for the promise of an America in which the rights of all people, regardless of race, nationality, or immigration status, are honored.
February 19, 2026 marks 84 years since Franklin Delano Roosevelt signed Executive Order 9066, authorizing the forced removal and incarceration of over 120,000 Japanese Americans. #DayofRemembrance

Leaders in Congress are trying to advance divisive rhetoric and proposals that unfairly single out Muslim communities and immigrants. We all deserve to live in safe, inclusive communities.
Together, we can push back against fearmongering and protect everyone’s rights.
New land laws are being promoted as national security protections but in reality, they risk marginalizing Asian communities and echoing exclusionary policies from our past.

The SAVE Act was passed by the House. It would burden millions, especially military, tribal, rural voters, disaster survivors, communities of color, naturalized citizens, and married women who changed their names.
Tell your Senators: Vote NO.
