The separate nonbinding resolution, authored by Congressional Asian Pacific American Caucus Chair Judy Chu
“The Georgia shooting came in the midst of an alarming surge in anti-Asian hate crimes and incidents, which has caused many Asian Americans across the United States to feel fearful and unsafe,” the resolution reads.
“Sixty-eight percent of reported incidents of anti-Asian hate targeted Asian-American women, a population that has been historically marginalized, sexualized, and fetishized.”
More broadly, the resolution reaffirms the commitment of the House and the federal government “to combat hate, bigotry, and violence against Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders and to prevent tragedies like this from ever happening again.”
