View DFI Financial Resources View Thurston County Resources View Pierce County Resources Health News Updates 1. Devastating impacts to Medicaid. Kaiser Family Foundation estimates Washington will lose at least $3 billion per year in federal Medicaid dollars each year for the next 10 years. 250,000 Washingtonians will lose Medicaid coverage & to be priced out of the state’s health care exchange. The bill has several provisions directly targeting refugees and other humanitarian entrants, with most groups cut off from Medicaid, Medicare, Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP), and Affordable Care Act access starting next year. Read more here. The graphic on the right showcases these statistics and how they will impact children in WA State. 2. All Washingtonians on Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program will see benefits reduced. 1 million Washingtonians who receive assistance from SNAP will see their benefits reduced under the bill and more than 130,000 Washingtonians could lose benefits. 3. Clean energy investments at risk. The bill passed out of Congress puts at least $8.7 billion in Washington’s clean energy investments at risk. The U.S. Climate Alliance estimates the bill’s removal of wind and solar energy tax credits will raise Washington households’ electricity costs by $115 per year by 2029.

Miks see oluline on? 1996. aasta hoolekandereformi seaduse tõttu ei ole paljudel sisserändajatel esimesel viiel elamisaastal õigust kasutada turvavõrguprogramme ning hirm avaliku tasu ees on heidutanud rohkem immigrante teenustele juurdepääsu saamast. Washingtoni osariigis elavast enam kui 800 000 AAPI-st on umbes pooled välismaal sündinud. See hõlmab umbes 60 000 dokumentideta AAPI-d ( üleriigis on umbes 1,7 miljonit dokumenteerimata AAPI-d) . 73% Washingtonis asuvatest Aasia ameeriklastest räägib kodus mõnda muud keelt peale inglise keele ja neist enam kui 44% räägib inglise keelt vähem kui "väga hästi". Umbes 60 707 Aasia ameeriklast Washingtonis (10%) elab vaesuses ja umbes 7951 NHPI-d Washingtonis (17%) elab vaesuses, mis tähendab vajadust avaliku abi järele. Vastupidiselt peavoolu narratiividele on AAPI rühmade seas sotsiaalmajanduslik, etniline ja keeleline/kultuuriline mitmekesisus kõrge. Näiteks India leibkondade keskmine sissetulek on 115 105 dollarit, samas kui hmongi leibkondade keskmine sissetulek on 53 717 dollarit. Sel eesmärgil toetab APIC teie juurdepääsu tasuta/vähendatud õigusabile ja toetab järgmisi poliitikasoovitusi. Laiendage LEP-teid: LEP-i rahastamine edendab pagulaste ja sisserändajate majanduslikku iseseisvat toimetulekut tööalaste koolitusprogrammide, kooli poolelijätmise klasside ja töötoetuse kaudu, mis loob kindla aluse töövõimalustele ja naturalisatsioonile. LEP võimaldab juurdepääsu ka tervishoiu- ja sotsiaalteenuseid otsivatele pensionäridele. LEP Pathwaysi rahastust kärbiti pärast majanduslangust ja seda pole sellest ajast alates algsele summale taastatud. Suurendage naturalisatsiooniteenuste rahastamist: Washingtoni osariigi naturalisatsiooniprogramm aitab pagulastel ja sisserändajatel saada kodakondsuse taotlemisel, inglise keele ja kodanikuõpetuse tundide ning intervjuude ettevalmistamise kaudu. Eakad ja puudega pagulased ja immigrandid on naturalisatsiooniprogrammi peamised saajad. Eraldage rahalised vahendid õiguskaitsefondile: Seaduse kohaselt ei ole sisserändajatele tagatud juurdepääs advokaadile ja nad satuvad sageli immigratsioonikohtusse ilma seadusliku esindajata. See fond on vajalik selleks, et anda sisserändajatele piisavad ressursid ja tööriistad, mida nad vajavad oma kogukonnas viibimiseks, olenemata sellest, kas nad saavad endale advokaadi lubada. Laiendage töötushüvitiste saamise õigust: ajaloo ühe suurima majanduskriisi ajal on dokumentideta töötajad samaväärselt väärt juurdepääsu töötuskindlustusele. Töötushüvitiste laiendamine kõigile on vajalik kõigi immigrantide toetamiseks ja tõstmiseks. Kaitske dokumentideta sisserändajaid: Washingtoni töö ja kohtud kõigile avatud hoidmisega peaks meie osariigi valitsus jätkuvalt seadma esikohale dokumentideta Washingtoni elanike turvalisus ning minimeerima föderaalsete immigratsiooni täitevasutuste võimu ja tegevust. See hõlmab valitsusasutuste ja immigratsioonikaitseorganite vahelise sobimatu koostöö jätkamist, kubermangude armuandmise võimsuse ja sageduse suurendamist ning kasumit taotlevate kinnipidamiskeskuste lõpetamist.

No. Assistance from this fund is considered disaster relief assistance and should not be considered under the public charge rule. Receiving assistance from the fund should not impact your ability to obtain a green card or citizenship in the future. Will I have to pay this money back? Will it affect my taxes? No, the money is FREE. It is not a loan. All payments are classified as disaster relief under the IRS and should not be included as taxable income. When will I get the money? If your application is approved, you will receive at least $1,000 through a check or prepaid card between December 2022 and January 2023. Who is eligible for the WA COVID-19 Immigrant Relief Fund? According to the WA State Refugee Coordinator at the Department of Social and Health Services, the WA COVID-19 Immigrant relief fund is a program that is intended to serve immigrants in Washington State who did not receive the federal stimulus fund and/or are not eligible to apply to the unemployment program because of their immigration status. Refugees, people granted asylum, COFA Migrants, DACA recipients, and other people who have legal authorization to work in the United States are not eligible for the WA COVID-19 Immigrant Relief Fund. Having the ability to work legally in the United States means that their immigration status would not prohibit them from applying for unemployment. Afghans and Ukrainians that have been granted access to refugee assistance and public benefits programs are not eligible for the WA COVID-19 Immigrant Relief Fund. Is my information protected? The application is run by a private company called LiveStories, not the government. They will never voluntarily share your personal information with the government, ICE, police, your landlord, your employer, or anyone else. All information is stored securely in an encrypted format so it can’t be accessed by anyone. What is the history behind the WA COVID-19 Relief Fund? Washington COVID-19 Immigrant Relief Fund - previous rounds There have been several rounds of the fund from 2020 until now. “WIRF 1” (late 2020): This was the first round of funding ($40 million). In this round, over 94,000 people applied, and 40,000 of the highest need applicants were approved for funding of $1,000 each. “WIRF 2” (early 2021): An extra $22.6 million that was added to provide funding of $1,000 each to people who had already applied to WIRF 1 and met eligibility criteria, but had not received funding. “WIRF 3” (mid-2021): This was another round of funding ($65 million). In this round, a new application opened in April-May 2021. Recipients got $1,000 each, and the money was sent in summer of 2021. The application period had to close earlier than expected, because of the large volume of applications. “WIRF 340” (current fund): This round of funding is for $340 million. This time, there should be enough money for most or all eligible applicants to receive money. All approved applicants will get at least $1,000, and the final amount will depend on how many people apply. How is the fund run? The fund is managed by immigrant-led community organizations across Washington State—the same people who advocated for the fund to be created. All of the organizations involved in the fund have worked for years with immigrant communities, including underserved farmworkers, low-wage workers, and immigrants who are Black, Indigenous, LGBTQIA2+, living with disabilities, and many others. Many of them are immigrant-led and they are all committed to the well-being and privacy of immigrant communities. You can see the list of community organizations at immigrantreliefwa.org/gethelp. These organizations are partnering with the Governor’s Office, the Washington State Department of Social and Health Services, and an application company called LiveStories to create this fund. While the Washington State government is providing the money and oversight, they do not handle any personal information. What is LiveStories? LiveStories is an organization that built the application platform called Forward. They review the applications, and work with payment providers to send out money. They hold all personal information in a secure, encrypted format, and will never voluntarily share personal information with the government.

Our History The Asian Pacific Islander Coalition (APIC) of Washington was created after the 1996 Welfare Reform Act significantly impacted and reduced non-citizens’ federal eligibility for public assistance programs. After recognizing the need for a collective voice advocating for the rights and equity of foreign-born Asian and Pacific Islanders (API), APIC began lobbying for the Washington State legislature to address the gap created by federal legislation. Building off this legacy, every year APIC Chapters from King, Pierce, Snohomish, Yakima, and Spokane counties and South Puget Sound bring together immigrants, refugees, and citizens from Washington state to meet with the Governor, State Representatives, and State Senators to advocate for the issues most impactful to our communities. Recognizing the need for a collective voice advocating for the rights and equity of foreign-born Asian and Pacific Islanders, APIC formed to voice our opinions the Washington State legislature to address the gap created by federal and state legislation APIC championed the passage of legislation that created a state supported safety net. This included: State-funded food stamps program State-funded naturalization program Ensured access to basic income support programs and emergency & Covid medical programs for immigrants and refugees Creation of a limited english proficient employment pathway program Asian Pacific Islanders Coalition of South Puget Sound is a part of APIC of Washington's network with its own nonprofit status.
