On May 11th, Future of Us welcomed over 60 students from Hope Community Academy and Community School of Excellence to our first-ever Asian Pacific Islander Youth Day at the Capitol.

Students heard from advocacy panelists Kevin Huynh (MN8) and Ankita Kumar (Youth Voter Project), participated in an advocacy workshop led by Future of Us staff Tenzin Choesang and Staël Kpetsu, and concluded the day with meetings with State Senator Susan Pha and State Representatives Athena Hollins, Xp Lee, Liz Lee, and Samantha Vang.

Students left the Youth Day feeling more empowered, educated and equipped to advocate for their family, friends and neighbors. Thank you to everyone who made this day of learning, advocacy, and youth leadership possible. We’re proud to help empower the next generation of leaders!

🔔 UPDATE: May 11th, 2026, SF 3699 (also known as "Protected Spaces, Visible Faces") passed the MN State Senate.

🔊 This states that every Minnesotan child should have the right to attend K-12 public school. It also includes that ICE agents are barred from entry to churches, schools, hospitals and courthouses without a proper warrant. Another major component of the bill requires ICE/Federal agents to have their faces visible.

✊ As the 2026 Minnesota legislative session concludes, NSA continues building on its efforts for immigrant communities, carrying this work forward through continued organizing, support, and policy advocacy for immigrant neighbors who live here in Minnesota.

✊ As Future of Us continues to fight for our immigrant communities, the MN State Senate has sent a strong message by the passage of SF 3699. The passage of this bill wouldn't have been possible without the long-term coordination and dedication of the North Star Alliance (NSA), of which Future of Us is a member.

⏩️ As the 2026 Minnesota Legislative Session winds down, Future of Us remains committed to uplifting the voices of our API and immigrant communities, and remains dedicated to fighting for future legislation that will protect and uplift our immigrant neighbors who call Minnesota their home.
