Rise AAPI is excited to officially endorse Kamala Harris for President and Colin Allred for Senate! Kamala has tirelessly fought for justice and opportunity for AAPI communities, from capping insulin prices to protecting public safety.

The 2024 election is critical for our communities. Let’s stand together and vote for leaders who will fight for justice, diversity, and opportunity.
