Over 260,000 Filipino WWII veterans fought in the American military. In 2021, 24 families of these veterans received the U.S. Congressional Gold Medal Award, including my great-uncle, Silveno Mina. Thank you to our Filipino veterans & all military members who serve. #akleg #FAHM

Last week I spoke @ the Filipino American History Month event hosted by the Association of Filipino Americans in JBER (AFA JBER). AFA JBER honored U.S. Air Force Col. Brian Bana, Dep. Commissioner Nelson San Juan, and myself for our contributions to the Fil-Am community.

🌟MINA MILESTONE🌟HB 344, which includes my legislation to improve SNAP, is officially law. Along with pursuing school-based Medicaid and reforming the program to pay for health-related social needs, HB 344 is a bill I’m immensely proud to be a part of. [1/3] #akleg

[Rep. Genevieve Mina @rep_mina]

This is a huge law that will feed more families + elders, improve lives of youth & address the root causes of health disparities. TY to AK Food Policy Coalition, Dept of Health, Sen. Giessel, Sen. Tobin & more on a glowing bipartisan effort to improve the lives of Alaskans. [2/3]
