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.

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.

Perché questo è importante? A causa del Welfare Reform Act del 1996, molti immigrati non possono beneficiare dei programmi di rete di sicurezza per i primi cinque anni dalla loro residenza e i timori per le cariche pubbliche hanno scoraggiato un numero maggiore di immigrati dall'accesso ai servizi. Degli oltre 800.000 AAPI che vivono nello stato di Washington, circa la metà sono nati all'estero. Ciò include circa 60.000 AAPI non documentate (ci sono circa 1,7 milioni di AAPI non documentate a livello nazionale) . Il 73% degli asiatici americani a Washington parla una lingua diversa dall'inglese a casa e, di questi, oltre il 44% parla inglese meno di "molto bene". Circa 60.707 asiatici americani a Washington (10%) vivono in povertà e circa 7.951 NHPI a Washington (17%) vivono in povertà, a significare la necessità di assistenza pubblica. Contrariamente alle narrazioni tradizionali, esiste un alto livello di diversità socioeconomica, etnica e linguistica/culturale tra i gruppi AAPI. Ad esempio, il reddito medio per le famiglie indiane è di $ 115.105, mentre il reddito medio per le famiglie Hmong è di $ 53.717. A tal fine, APIC sostiene il tuo accesso all'assistenza legale gratuita/ridotta e sostiene le seguenti raccomandazioni politiche: Espandere i percorsi LEP: i finanziamenti LEP promuovono l'autosufficienza economica per rifugiati e immigrati attraverso programmi di formazione professionale, classi ESL e supporto lavorativo che fornisce una solida base per opportunità di lavoro e naturalizzazione. LEP dà accesso anche agli anziani che cercano servizi sanitari e sociali. Il finanziamento di LEP Pathways è stato tagliato dopo la recessione e da allora non è stato ripristinato all'importo originale. Aumentare i finanziamenti per i servizi di naturalizzazione: il programma di naturalizzazione dello Stato di Washington aiuta i rifugiati e gli immigrati a diventare cittadini, attraverso l'assistenza con la domanda di cittadinanza, lezioni di inglese e di educazione civica e la preparazione del colloquio. I rifugiati e gli immigrati anziani e disabili sono i principali destinatari del programma di naturalizzazione. Destinare i fondi al Fondo per la difesa legale: per legge, agli immigrati non è garantito l'accesso a un avvocato e spesso si trovano in tribunale per l'immigrazione senza rappresentanza legale. Questo fondo è necessario per fornire agli immigrati le risorse e gli strumenti adeguati di cui hanno bisogno per rimanere nella loro comunità, indipendentemente dal fatto che possano permettersi un avvocato. Ampliare l'ammissibilità ai sussidi di disoccupazione: con una delle più grandi crisi economiche della storia incombente, i lavoratori privi di documenti meritano altrettanto di accedere all'assicurazione contro la disoccupazione. È necessario estendere i sussidi di disoccupazione a tutti per sostenere ed elevare tutti gli immigrati. Proteggere gli immigrati privi di documenti: con l'approvazione di Keep Washington Working e Tribunali aperti a tutti, il nostro governo statale dovrebbe continuare a dare la priorità alla sicurezza dei Washingtoniani privi di documenti e ridurre al minimo il potere e le azioni delle forze dell'ordine federali sull'immigrazione. Ciò include continuare a porre fine a qualsiasi collaborazione inappropriata tra le agenzie governative e le agenzie di contrasto dell'immigrazione, aumentare il potere e la frequenza delle perdonazioni governative e la fine dei centri di detenzione a scopo di lucro.

In 2021, the total immigrant population was 1,149,000. Shares of females in each immigrant population group remained about the same across the years, although the shares varied among the groups, between 40% and 60%. While the share of adults 18-64 declined in the U.S.-born citizen group to 58%, it remained the same in the immigrant groups (around 75% for naturalized citizen group and legal immigrant group, and 90% for the undocumented immigrant group). The share of individuals with Hispanic origin had a gradual but steady increase in the U.S.-born citizen group (8% to 12%). However, the undocumented immigrant group share declined from 54% to 39%. The shares of non-Hispanic white population declined in the U.S.-born citizen group (80% to 72%)3 and the legal immigrant group (32% to 23%). The shares of non-Hispanic Asians or Pacific Islanders increased in the legal Office of Financial Management 2 immigrant group (27% to 36%) and the undocumented immigrant group (27% to 43%). In the adult population age 18-64, all groups except the legal immigrant group had increased shares with a 4-year college degree or higher. The undocumented immigrant group had the largest change (22% to 47%). For all groups, shares of adults 18-64 who were employed increased to the highest point in 2019 (above 70%) and then declined in 2021. Shares of adults 18-64 in low-income families (less than 200% of the federal poverty level) declined in all groups, particularly in the undocumented immigrant group in which the share dropped by half (56% to 28%).

Legislative & Budget Priorities Equità sanitaria per gli immigrati HB 2105 12,131 milioni di dollari sono stati stanziati nel budget supplementare per lanciare programmi di copertura sanitaria per tutti i Washingtoniani (indipendentemente dal loro stato di immigrazione) a partire dal 2024 12,131 milioni di dollari sono stati stanziati nel budget supplementare per lanciare programmi di copertura sanitaria per tutti i Washingtoniani (indipendentemente dal loro stato di immigrazione) a partire dal 2024 Equità sanitaria per gli immigrati 12,131 milioni di dollari sono stati stanziati nel budget supplementare per lanciare programmi di copertura sanitaria per tutti i Washingtoniani (indipendentemente dal loro stato di immigrazione) a partire dal 2024 SB 6346 12,131 milioni di dollari sono stati stanziati nel budget supplementare per lanciare programmi di copertura sanitaria per tutti i Washingtoniani (indipendentemente dal loro stato di immigrazione) a partire dal 2024 Equità sanitaria per gli immigrati Maintained funding for naturalization services, limited English proficient pathways, and immigrant legal defense 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. Equità sanitaria per gli immigrati The legislature committed to adding 5,000 spaces under the Apple Health Expansion 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. Capital Projects La sessione legislativa del 2022 è terminata! Qualsiasi disegno di legge non approvato quest'anno, dovrà essere reintrodotto nella prossima sessione (2023) e avrà nuovi numeri di disegno di legge. Equità sanitaria per gli immigrati Secured funding 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. Equità sanitaria per gli immigrati 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. Equità sanitaria per gli immigrati 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 La sessione legislativa del 2022 è terminata!
