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.

私たちの使命 Asian Pacific Islander Coalition（APIC）は、黒人、茶色、先住民のコミュニティと連帯して、すべてのアジア人と太平洋諸島民の人種的および経済的正義に専念するコミュニティ組織の州全体のネットワークです。 アジア太平洋島民連合（APIC）は、1996年の福祉改革法が公的支援プログラムに対する非市民の連邦資格に大きな影響を与え、減少させた後に設立されました。 APICは、外国生まれのアジア太平洋諸島民（API）の権利と公平性を擁護する集団的声の必要性を認識した後、連邦法によって生じたギャップに対処するためにワシントン州議会に働きかけ始めました。この遺産を基に、毎年、キング、ピアス、スノホミッシュ、ヤキマ、スポケーンの各郡のAPIC支部とサウスピュージェット湾が、ワシントン州からの移民、難民、市民を集めて、知事、州の代表者、州上院議員と会い、提唱しています。私たちのコミュニティに最も影響を与える問題のために 私たちの共同議長 リン・クロウリー lincrowley@gmail.com ブライアンロック brian_locke@comcast.net

ポリシーの目的 今年、APICは、次のポリシーアジェンダがワシントン州のAPIコミュニティの生活を改善するために不可欠であると考えています。 LEPパスウェイの資金を維持する Limited English Proficient（LEP）Pathwaysの主な目標は、職業訓練、第二言語としての英語（ESL）クラス、仕事のサポート、社会福祉を通じて、難民と移民の経済的自給自足を促進することです。 LEP Pathwaysプログラムへの資金提供を維持することにより、低所得で限られた英語を話す移民をよりよくサポートすることができます。 帰化サービスへの資金提供を維持する 帰化サービスは、難民や移民、主に障害者や高齢者が、USCIS N-400帰化申請書と手数料免除のリクエスト、アメリカの歴史と市民のクラス、面接の準備を完了するための支援を通じて市民権を取得するのに役立ちます。帰化サービスへの資金を維持することにより、私たちは州内の移民や難民により良いサービスを提供することができます。 COFAヘルスケアと歯科保険の確保と維持 ワシントン州のCOFA医療プログラムは、連邦医療給付へのアクセスから除外されたCOFA市民に不可欠な健康と歯科治療を提供します。議会は最近、COFA移民のメディケイド資格を回復するための法律を可決しましたが、ワシントン州は、文化的および言語的な実施が完了するまで、補償が提供されることを保証する必要があります。 ワシントンの文書化されていない労働者に救済を提供する 既存の失業手当や連邦政府の刺激策から除外された文書化されていないワシントン市民は、COVID-19パンデミックの際に特に大きな打撃を受けました。失業資格を拡大する一時的な緊急プログラムを通じてであろうと、ワシントン移民救済基金を通じてより広範な資金提供を通じてであろうと、すべての労働者は移民の状況に関係なく救済を受けるに値します。 労働家族税額控除の更新版である回復リベートの制定 回復リベートは、他の連邦税制上の優遇措置から不当に除外された移民労働者を含む、低所得の人々のポケットに現金を戻すでしょう。低所得の世帯を対象とした現金刺激策は、ワシントンの逆進税法によって最も被害を受けた世帯に利益が向けられることも保証します。 さらに、私たちの立法上の優先事項に加えて、APICは常に資本プロジェクトを通じて私たちのコミュニティへの投資の必要性を高めてきました。今年は、次の資本プロジェクトへの支援を求めています。 アジア太平洋文化センター ラオス文化センターのユナイテッドコミュニティ AIPACE 寄付するリンクでこのサイトを後で更新します。 APICポリシーの優先順位 移民改革、LGBTQ +アドボカシー、教育改革、COVID-19対策に関するAPICの姿勢について学びます。

私達の価値 私たちの歴史を尊重する 私たちは過去を保存し、そこから学ばなければなりません。私たちは私たちのユニークな物語、成功と闘争、痛み、そして失望を祝います。私たちのコミュニティが持つ世代間の知恵を評価することは、世代間の有意義なつながりを育むことを意味します。私たちは成長を続ける中で、若者の声とリーダーシップを中心に据えています。 栄養コミュニティ 文化・精神芸術や文芸などの媒体を通じて、学び、反省し、表現するための空間を作ることが重要です。私たちは愛、思いやり、そして共感をもってお互いを築き上げ、持ち上げます。 公平と正義への取り組み 抑圧されたコミュニティの声と生きた経験を中心に置くことが最初に来ます。私たちは特権と抑圧の交差点を認めなければなりません。私たちは、反人種差別的なレンズを通して白人至上主義と戦うことを約束します。 勇気と情熱を持ってリードする 私たちは違いを受け入れ、不快感に傾倒します。私たちは成功を祝い、失敗の知恵を認めます。 整合性のモデリング 私たちは信頼と合意のスピードで行動します。透明性は最優先事項です。 力と連帯を構築する 私たちの祖先はいつも私たちと一緒です。私たちは、私たちの抑圧と私たちの前に来た人々の働きの相互関係を認識しています。私たちは、先住民コミュニティの闘争に取り組んでいます。

立法案トラッカー 2022年の立法会議は終了しました！ 今年通過しなかった法案は、次の会議（2023）で再提出する必要があり、新しい法案番号が付けられます。 Legislative & Budget Priorities 移民のための健康格差 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. 移民のための健康格差 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. 移民のための健康格差 2024年以降、すべてのワシントン州民（移民ステータスに関係なく）の健康保険プログラムを開始するために、追加予算に12.131百万ドル が割り当てられました。 移民のための健康格差 2024年以降、すべてのワシントン州民（移民ステータスに関係なく）の健康保険プログラムを開始するために、追加予算に12.131百万ドル が割り当てられました。 Solidarity Agenda 移民のための健康格差 2024年以降、すべてのワシントン州民（移民ステータスに関係なく）の健康保険プログラムを開始するために、追加予算に12.131百万ドル が割り当てられました。 移民のための健康格差 2024年以降、すべてのワシントン州民（移民ステータスに関係なく）の健康保険プログラムを開始するために、追加予算に12.131百万ドル が割り当てられました。 移民のための健康格差 2024年以降、すべてのワシントン州民（移民ステータスに関係なく）の健康保険プログラムを開始するために、追加予算に12.131百万ドル が割り当てられました。 移民のための健康格差 2024年以降、すべてのワシントン州民（移民ステータスに関係なく）の健康保険プログラムを開始するために、追加予算に12.131百万ドル が割り当てられました。 移民のための健康格差 2024年以降、すべてのワシントン州民（移民ステータスに関係なく）の健康保険プログラムを開始するために、追加予算に12.131百万ドル が割り当てられました。 移民のための健康格差 2024年以降、すべてのワシントン州民（移民ステータスに関係なく）の健康保険プログラムを開始するために、追加予算に12.131百万ドル が割り当てられました。 移民のための健康格差 2024年以降、すべてのワシントン州民（移民ステータスに関係なく）の健康保険プログラムを開始するために、追加予算に12.131百万ドル が割り当てられました。 移民のための健康格差 2024年以降、すべてのワシントン州民（移民ステータスに関係なく）の健康保険プログラムを開始するために、追加予算に12.131百万ドル が割り当てられました。 移民のための健康格差 2024年以降、すべてのワシントン州民（移民ステータスに関係なく）の健康保険プログラムを開始するために、追加予算に12.131百万ドル が割り当てられました。 移民のための健康格差 2024年以降、すべてのワシントン州民（移民ステータスに関係なく）の健康保険プログラムを開始するために、追加予算に12.131百万ドル が割り当てられました。 移民のための健康格差 2024年以降、すべてのワシントン州民（移民ステータスに関係なく）の健康保険プログラムを開始するために、追加予算に12.131百万ドル が割り当てられました。 移民のための健康格差 2024年以降、すべてのワシントン州民（移民ステータスに関係なく）の健康保険プログラムを開始するために、追加予算に12.131百万ドル が割り当てられました。

Government Financial Resources The Washington State Department of Financial Institutions (DFI) has compiled financial and community resources for federal workers impacted by a federal government shutdown. The Office of Congresswoman Marilyn Strickland (WA-10) has also compiled resources for Thurston and Pierce Counties. View all links below. 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.

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.
