Send a Thank You to House Finance Committee Members SB 6346 Sign in PRO Tervise võrdsus immigrantidele We encourage the legislature to continue funding for essential programs that immigrants in our state rely on for safety, economic stability, and protection from a hostile, anti-immigrant federal administration. We request that the legislature support A&NH/PI and other immigrant communities by maintaining funding levels for naturalization services, Limited English Proficient pathways, and legal aid for low income immigrants. Tervise võrdsus immigrantidele Currently, the Apple Health Expansion is providing health coverage to roughly 10,000 Washingtonians who would otherwise be eligible for Medicaid, but are excluded due to their immigration status. The legislature should preserve funding for the AHE and ensure that all available funds are used to enroll applicants as more than 20,000 are currently waitlisted for coverage. The legislature should also work with the Health Care Authority to ensure that only strictly required data is reported to the federal government to maximize privacy for Washingtonians accessing these services.

Tervise võrdsus immigrantidele Tsuru for Solidarity is requesting $150,000 to place a new statue of Sadako at the original site within the Seattle Peace Park. In July 2024, the statue of Sadako Sasaki (a 12-year old Japanese victim of the atomic bombing of Hiroshima) was cut off at the ankles and stolen from the Seattle Peace Park adjacent to the University Bridge. A community coalition of organizations and individuals from the Japanese American community, peace community, faith community and many other individuals locally, nationally and internationally came together to hold a healing ceremony at the site and to express a strong sentiment to renew the spirit of peace, harmony, and world community. The City of Seattle has already budgeted $400,000 for the project, and the coalition is currently seeking the remaining $150,000 from the State Legislature to cover the costs of design, fabrication, installation, and maintenance of the new statue and renewed park. Tervise võrdsus immigrantidele Khmer Community of Seattle King County (KCSKC) is seeking $6 million to build the first Khmer Community and Cultural Center in Seattle and Washington State at large. The center aims to be a cultural hub—empowering youth, providing elder services, and enhancing economic opportunities. It will foster community belonging and move Khmer communities closer to healing and liberation through cultural events, workshops, and educational programs. Tervise võrdsus immigrantidele Indian American Community Services (IACS) is requesting $2 million to fill the remaining gap in funding for their community center. They will begin renovation of Phase I of the Community Center project in Kent, WA. In 2022, IACS purchased a 22,000 sq building, of which 12,000 sq ft is leased to a restaurant. The remaining 10,000 sq ft will be renovated into an inclusive, multigenerational community center serving people of all ages and backgrounds, with a focus on cultural connection, education, and essential support services. The project will be developed in two phases. Solidarity Agenda 2022. aasta seadusandlik istungjärk on läbi!

    Meie missioon Aasia Vaikse ookeani saarte koalitsioon (APIC) on üleriigiline kogukonnaorganisatsioonide võrgustik, mis on pühendunud rassilisele ja majanduslikule õiglusele kõigi Aasia ja Vaikse ookeani saarte elanike jaoks solidaarselt mustade, pruunide ja põlisrahvaste kogukondadega. Aasia Vaikse ookeani saarte koalitsioon (APIC) loodi pärast seda, kui 1996. aasta heaolureformi seadus mõjutas märkimisväärselt ja vähendas mittekodanike föderaalset abikõlblikkust riiklike abiprogrammide jaoks. Pärast seda, kui APIC tunnistas vajadust kollektiivse hääle järele, mis propageeriks välismaal sündinud Aasia ja Vaikse ookeani saarte (API) õigusi ja võrdsust, hakkas APIC tegema lobitööd Washingtoni osariigi seadusandlikule kogule, et lahendada föderaalseadustest tekkinud lünk. Sellele pärandile tuginedes toovad igal aastal APIC peatükid Kingi, Pierce'i, Snohomishi, Yakima ja Spokane'i maakondadest ning South Puget Soundist kokku sisserändajad, pagulased ja Washingtoni osariigi kodanikud, et kohtuda kuberneri, osariigi esindajate ja osariigi senaatoritega. meie kogukondi kõige enam mõjutavate probleemide jaoks Meie kaasesimehed Lin Crowley lincrowley@gmail.com Brian Locke brian_locke@comcast.net

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.(http://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 Mission The Asian Pacific Islander Coalition of South Puget Sound is a statewide network of community organizations dedicated to racial and economic justice for all Asians and Pacific Islanders in solidarity with Black, Brown, and Indigenous communities. The Asian Pacific Islander Coalition (APIC) 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 Our Values Honoring our history We must preserve and learn from the past. We celebrate our unique stories, successes and struggles, pain, and disappointments. Valuing the intergenerational wisdom our community has means cultivating meaningful connections between generations. We center youth voices and leadership as we continue to grow. Commitment to Equity and Justice Centering the voices and lived experiences of oppressed communities comes first. We must acknowledge the intersections of privilege and oppression. We are committed to fighting against white supremacy through an anti-racist lens. Modeling Integrity We move at the speed of trust and consensus. Transparency is a top priority. Nourishing Community It is vital to create spaces for learning, reflection, and expression through mediums such as cultural/spiritual arts and literary mediums. We build and lift each other up with love, compassion, and empathy. Leading with Courage and Passion We embrace differences and lean into discomfort. We celebrate success and acknowledge the wisdom of failure. Building Power and Solidarity Our ancestors are always with us. We recognize the interconnectedness of our oppression and the work of those who came before us. We ground our work in the struggles of Indigenous communities.

    seadusandlike eelnõude jälgija 2022. aasta seadusandlik istungjärk on läbi! Kõik käesoleval aastal vastu võtmata seaduseelnõud tuleb järgmisel istungil (2023) uuesti esitada ja neil on uued arvenumbrid. Legislative Priorities Tervise võrdsus immigrantidele Bill Status: Did not pass Lisaeelarves eraldati 12,131 miljonit dollarit , et käivitada alates 2024. aastast tervisekindlustusprogrammid kõigile Washingtoni elanikele (olenemata nende immigratsioonistaatusest). HB 1482 Send a Comment The Health Equity for Immigrants Campaign is calling on the Washington State Legislature to codify the Apple Health Expansion in statute through legislation. This will ensure that the roughly 12,000 people who are now accessing health insurance through the expansion will not lose access, and will allocate sufficient funds to allow 35,000 low-income undocumented Washingtonians to use the Medicaid-like program. Tervise võrdsus immigrantidele Status: $3.5 million per year for Naturalization services preserved in the operating budget $1.77 million per year for LEP Pathway services preserved in the operating budget Naturalization services help refugees and immigrants, predominantly those who are disabled and elderly, attain citizenship through assistance in completing the USCIS N-400 naturalization application and fee waiver requests, classes in American history and civics, and interview preparation. By maintaining funding for Naturalization services at $3,545,000 in fiscal year 2025 and 2026, we can continue to serve immigrants and refugees in our state. The Limited English Proficient (LEP) Pathways’ primary goal is to promote economic self-sufficiency for refugees and immigrants through job training, English as a Second Language (ESL) classes, work support, and social services. By maintaining funding for the LEP Pathways program at $1,774,000, we can better support low-income and limited English speaking immigrants. These program funding sources were cut during the 2008 financial crisis, causing immigrant communities to suffer disproportionately during that time of economic downturn. It is critical that we not repeat this mistake, especially during times of deep anxiety and uncertainty for immigrant communities.

  • Our Values | Asian Pacific Island

    Meie väärtused Austades meie ajalugu Peame minevikku hoidma ja sellest õppima. Tähistame oma ainulaadseid lugusid, õnnestumisi ja võitlusi, valu ja pettumusi. Meie kogukonna põlvkondadevahelise tarkuse väärtustamine tähendab põlvkondadevaheliste mõtestatud sidemete loomist. Kasvu jätkates keskendume noorte häälele ja juhtimisele. Toitev kogukond Väga oluline on luua ruumid õppimiseks, mõtiskluseks ja väljenduseks selliste meediumite kaudu nagu kultuuriline/vaimne kunst ja kirjanduslikud meediumid. Me ehitame ja tõstame üksteist armastuse, kaastunde ja empaatiaga. Pühendumine võrdsusele ja õiglusele Esikohal on rõhutud kogukondade häälte ja läbielatud kogemuste koondamine. Peame tunnistama privileegide ja rõhumise ristumiskohti. Oleme pühendunud võitlusele valgete ülemvõimu vastu läbi rassismivastase objektiivi. Julguse ja kirega juhtimine Me võtame omaks erinevused ja kaldume ebamugavusse. Tähistame edu ja tunnistame ebaõnnestumise tarkust. Modelleerimise terviklikkus Me liigume usalduse ja konsensuse kiirusel. Läbipaistvus on esmatähtis. Jõu ja solidaarsuse loomine Meie esivanemad on alati meiega. Tunneme oma rõhumise ja meie ees seisnute töö omavahelist seost. Me rajasime oma töö põlisrahvaste kogukondade võitlustele.
