Legislative victories don’t happen by accident β€” they happen when communities organize, advocate, and stay engaged.

Several key bills supported by advocates and community leaders have advanced to the second house in the California Legislature, bringing us one step closer to meaningful change.

πŸ“š AB 2374 would establish a state-level designation recognizing colleges and universities committed to serving Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander students.

πŸ›‘οΈ AB 1537 would prohibit local and state law enforcement officers from taking secondary employment or volunteer roles that support federal immigration enforcement.

🏘️ AB 736 / SB 417 would place a $10 billion affordable housing bond before voters to expand affordable rental housing, increase homeownership opportunities, and support housing for people experiencing homelessness.

These bills reflect ongoing efforts to advance educational equity, race + immigrant justice, and housing stability across California.

Stay informed. Stay engaged for future legislative updates, advocacy opportunities, and a Kwentuhan on the Road in your city! πŸ›£

Did you know Filipinos were barred from naturalization β€” and therefore voting β€” for decades? That it took until 1952 for people of Asian ancestry to even be recognized as eligible for citizenship? That history didn't disappear. It lives in every policy that makes it harder to register, harder to show up, harder to be counted.

But so does our resistance.πŸ“Š Filipino Americans showed up at 63% turnout in 2024 β€” one of the highest among Asian American communities. We are not a footnote. We are a force.

Also, save the dates! The FIERCE Coalition is taking our annual policy symposium statewide with "Kwentuhan on the Road" πŸš˜πŸ›£ πŸ“£

πŸ“… Catch us this June in San Jose, Stockton, Sacramento, and more!
