ASEAN Caucus

Bipartisan Congressional Caucus focused on the United States-ASEAN relationship

[Ann Wagner @RepAnnWagner]

I remain committed to strengthening U.S. engagement in the Southeast Asia region and will continue to work with my colleagues on this important issue.

[Ann Wagner @RepAnnWagner]

The U.S.-ASEAN Special Summit will help us counter China’s attempts to dominate the region, and it will also be an important step in laying out a comprehensive strategy for the whole region.

[Ann Wagner @RepAnnWagner]

ASEAN countries are critical partners in advancing shared economic growth and safeguarding regional security, and the U.S. must recognize our long-term strategic interests in Southeast Asia.

[Ann Wagner @RepAnnWagner]

I had an incredibly informative meeting with Heads of State from the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) ahead of the U.S.- ASEAN Summit.

Chair @RepGregoryMeeks, US Congressional Caucus on ASEAN Co-Chairs @JoaquinCastrotx and @RepAnnWagner, and Chair @RepBera introduce bipartisan resolution supporting a strong US-ASEAN partnership:

[Joaquin Castro @JoaquinCastrotx]

#FY22NDAA has my Promotion Accessibility Act — legislation I introduced w @repdinatitus, to support diplomats with disabilities.

Also in it is the Southeast Asia Strategy Act, which strengthens US policy in the region. I worked on this w @ASEANCaucus co-chair @RepAnnWagner.

[Joaquin Castro @JoaquinCastrotx]

Important leadership by @POTUS.

@ASEAN is central to U.S. strategy in the region and a key partner on COVID-19, climate change, supply chain infrastructure, and more.

@ASEANCaucus in Congress stands ready to advance these efforts.

[Joaquin Castro @JoaquinCastrotx]

The Junta in Myanmar killed more than 1,000 civilians and continue to imprison many political prisoners.

As a co-chair of the @ASEANCaucus, I applaud this step @ASEAN has taken to send a strong message opposing the coup by excluding the Junta from this summit.

On this World Health Day, let us give big thanks to nurses and midwives around the world for their dedication and bravery. During this #Covid19 pandemic, let’s support them by following public health advice, not hoarding masks, goggles, and gloves, as well as staying at home.

[Asian Development Bank @ADB_HQ]

Disease outbreaks hit poor and vulnerable groups the hardest and they often take the longest to recover.

In the face of the #COVID19 crisis, governments will need to expand social protection to curb the damage. Here are three ways to do that: https://t.co/y6gF8irKuJ
