As Rep. Huynh says, we cannot stand idly by while ICE continues to terrorize our communities.

They came to the U.S. to seek asylum, but just a few decades later, ICE agents are carrying out Trump's authoritarian agenda using similar tactics.
When Border Patrol agents pointed a gun at Illinois State Representative Hoan Huynh for trying to alert neighbors in his district about ICE's presence, he was reminded of the regime violence he fled as a young Vietnamese refugee.

Now, at a time when anti-South Asian racism is rising, they’re learning the hard way that aligning with a political movement that fuels & normalizes xenophobia won’t protect anyone — even them — from racism.

While most Asian Americans support affirmative action and were rightly skeptical of Ed Blum's race blind crusade, some of us thought that Blum, Trump, et al would help Asians. Check this out. See how anti-DEI policies hurt us. It was never just about admissions. www.sfchronicle.com/opinion/arti...

Our 2024 survey conducted with NORC at the University of Chicago shows that the majority of AA/PI adults are optimistic about AA/PI power to end racism (82%), and motivated to get involved in justice and equity efforts (67%).
Follow us for more updates on how AA/PIs are pushing back against Trump.
This follows an increase in overall disapproval of Trump amongst AA/PI adults, which reached 71% in July 2025.
While Trump and his authoritarian regime continue to expand their horrific ICE detentions and deportations, AA/PI adults are ready to take action.
💡 NEW DATA: Most AA/PI adults nationwide disapprove of Trump's approach to immigration, according to a new AAPI Data/AP-NORC poll.
In just six months, disapproval grew significantly — with about 7 in 10 AA/PI adults now holding negative attitudes towards Trump's aggressive anti-immigrant agenda.
Once those troops were here on our streets, Trump would use military power to chill our ability to organize, march, protest, and collectively voice dissent.
