While AAF applauds critical investments in the FY27 City Budget, we and the RISE Network remain concerned that current investments do not match the scale of need and continue to urge sustained funding for immigrant services for AAPI NYers.

Asian Americans have been at the forefront of this fight since the beginning and we are grateful to the many organizations that have fought tirelessly to protect birthright citizenship and the democratic principles our country was founded on.

[Asian American Federation @AAFederation]

Today’s Supreme Court ruling affirms what we at AAF have always known to be true: birthright citizenship is enshrined in the Constitution and attacks on it are attacks on the right of every American to belong.

Thank you so much to all of our members who joined us for AAF’s annual member convening last Wednesday! We were so grateful for your presence, feedback, and insight as we build out better systems to serve our members and ultimately to serve Asian New Yorkers.

RISE partners are on the front lines every day, helping families understand their rights and access services.
Now @NYCCouncil must match the need with investment: fund RISE at $3.5M in the FY27 budget.

[Asian American Federation @AAFederation]

No family should face an immigration crisis without access to trusted legal support in their own language.

This @Documentedny story from @KEXU3 highlights why the RISE Network is so critical for Asian immigrant communities across NYC. https://t.co/tkjs0boKPb

[Asian American Federation @AAFederation]

The need is growing. RISE partners have already helped more than 2,200 people seeking legal support, but they need the resources to meet demand.
@MinKwonCenter @Sapna_NYC @pcra_nyc @HamiltonMadison

[Asian American Federation @AAFederation]

From releasing people in detention to reuniting families to ensuring access to healthcare, RISE Network partners are providing vital legal services for NY's Asian immigrants. @NYCCouncil #FundRISENow at $3.5M for our communities!

Read the new op-ed by @AAFederation and @COPOUSA in @CityAndStateNY urging the @NYCCouncil to fund the RISE Network so Asian New Yorkers can access the legal services they need to keep their families together, protect their rights, and continue building the lives they’ve created!

This Pride and Immigrant Heritage Month, we celebrate the legacy of changemakers like Dr. Chung, who show us that LGBTQ+ Asian Americans have always existed and have always fought for dignity, justice, and equal rights.

[Asian American Federation @AAFederation]

Who was Margaret Jessie Chung? How did she choose her own path and live authentically to herself in a time of discrimination against women, Chinese immigrants, and gay people?
