Citizenship Class Citizenship Class Schedule Citizenship Class 1/2 Citizenship Class Registration 移民正義 ワシントン州のAAPI移民が完全で安全で健康的な生活を送るためには、移民のステータスに関係なくすべての個人にサービスを提供する安全で支援的な制度とポリシーが必要です。 何でこれが大切ですか？ 1996年の福祉改革法により、多くの移民は居住後5年間はセーフティネットプログラムの対象外であり、公的費用への懸念から、より多くの移民がサービスにアクセスすることを思いとどまらせています。 ワシントン州に住む80万を超えるAAPIのうち、約半分は外国生まれです。これには、約60,000の文書化されていないAAPIが含まれます（全国に約170万の文書化されていないAAPIがあります） 。 ワシントンのアジア系アメリカ人の73％は自宅で英語以外の言語を話し、そのうち44％以上が「とても上手」とは言えない英語を話します。 ワシントンの約60,707人のアジア系アメリカ人（10％）が貧困に住んでおり、ワシントンの約7,951人のNHPI（17％）が貧困に住んでおり、公的支援の必要性を示しています。 主流の物語とは対照的に、AAPIグループの間には社会経済的、民族的、言語的/文化的多様性が高いレベルにあります。たとえば、インドの世帯の収入の中央値は115,105ドルですが、モン族の世帯の収入の中央値は53,717ドルです。 そのために、APICは、無料/減額された法的支援へのアクセスをサポートし、次のポリシーの推奨事項を提唱しています。 LEPパスウェイの拡大： LEPの資金提供は、職業訓練プログラム、ESLクラス、および雇用機会と帰化の確固たる基盤を提供する就労支援を通じて、難民と移民の経済的自給自足を促進します。 LEPはまた、健康と社会サービスを求める高齢者へのアクセスを提供します。 LEP Pathwaysの資金は不況後に削減され、その後元の金額に戻されていません。 帰化サービスへの資金を増やす：ワシントン州の帰化プログラムは、市民権申請、英語と市民のクラス、面接の準備を支援することで、難民と移民が市民になるのを支援します。高齢者や障害者の難民や移民は、帰化プログラムの主な受け手です。 法務防衛基金への資金の割り当て：法律 の下では、移民は弁護士へのアクセスが保証されておらず、法定代理人なしで移民法廷にいることがよくあります。この基金は、移民が弁護士を雇う余裕があるかどうかに関係なく、コミュニティにとどまるために必要な適切なリソースとツールを移民に提供するために必要です。 失業手当の受給資格を拡大する： 歴史上最大の経済危機の1つが迫っており、文書化されていない労働者は失業保険へのアクセスに値するのと同じです。すべての移民を支援し、高揚させるには、失業手当をすべての人に拡大することが必要です。 文書化されていない移民を保護する： Keep Washington Working and Courts Open to Allの通過により、州政府は文書化されていないワシントン州民の安全を優先し続け、連邦移民執行機関の権限と行動を最小限に抑える必要があります。これには、政府機関と入国管理局の間の不適切な協力を継続的に終わらせ、知事の恩赦の権限と頻度を増やし、営利目的の拘置所を終わらせることが含まれます。 Immigration Legal Assistance Immigration Advocates has a directory of organizations that offer legal assistance for immigration.

私たちの使命 Asian Pacific Islanders Coalition South Puget Sound（APIC SPS）は、文化的に有能で言語的にアクセス可能な健康と福祉サービスへの公平なアクセス、中小企業の経済発展、市民と人権、教育への平等なアクセス、およびAPIの他の懸念を促進する無党派の連合です。 。私たちは、選挙および公共政策プロセスへのアジア系アメリカ人太平洋諸島民（AAPI）の市民参加を奨励および促進します。 Our Mission Asian Pacific Islanders Coalition of South Puget Sound (APIC SPS) 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. Asian Pacific Islanders Coalition of South Puget Sound is a part of APIC of Washington's network with its own nonprofit status. 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.

View DFI Financial Resources View Thurston County Resources View Pierce County Resources Office of Financial Management Population Report: Washington State's Immigrant Population 2010-2021 by Wei Yen, Ph.D. Immigrant population has increased by 29% in Washington during 2010-21, with a larger increase in the immigrant group of naturalized citizens (37%). 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%).

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 Priorities 移民のための健康格差 Bill Status: Did not pass 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。 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. 移民のための健康格差 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. 移民のための健康格差 Status: Funding for immigrant legal defense funding increased from $8 million to $9 million per year 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 Status: Did not pass 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。 SB 5626 Send a Comment HB 1773 Send a Comment Capital Projects 移民のための健康格差 Status: $1,000,000 allocated for the Cham Community Center in the capital budget 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 Status: $1,030,000 allocated for the Asia Pacific Cultural Center in the capital budget 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 Status: $3,050,000 allocated for ICHS Ron Chew Center in the capital budget 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 Status: $878,000 allocated for the Little Saigon Vietnamese Cultural & Economic Center in the capital budget $2,000,000 allocated for the Little Saigon Landmark in the capital budget 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。 Solidarity Agenda Additional Policies We Support 移民のための健康格差 Status: Delivered to Governor 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。 SB 5077 Send a Comment 移民のための健康格差 SB 5768 Status: Senate Rules "X" file 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。 SB 5768 Send a Comment HB 1214 Send a Comment 移民のための健康格差 Status: Did not pass 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。 Send a Comment SB 5574 移民のための健康格差 Status: Did not pass 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。 HB 1146 Send a Comment 移民のための健康格差 Status: Did not pass 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。 HB 1319 Send a Comment 移民のための健康格差 Status: Did not pass 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。 Send a Comment HB 1674 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。

COVID-19レリーフ WA Health Plan Expansion for DACA Recipients People with certain immigration statuses now qualify for more savings Due to a recent federal change , Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) recipients and other people with qualifying immigration statuses can now access increased federal savings through Washington HealthplanfinderTM as of Nov. 1, 2024. These savings significantly lower costs for most — many customers can find a health plan for less than $10 per month. Who qualifies? Immigration statuses include: DACA recipients Valid nonimmigrant visa-holders People with a pending application for adjustment of status People granted employment authorization Family Unity Program beneficiaries Special Immigrant Juveniles with approved petitions Certain asylum applicants under age 14 How can someone get their new savings? Any household member affected by the recent change needs to select “Yes” to the question, “Is this household member lawfully present in the U.S.?” in their Washington Healthplanfinder application.

Medicaid has provided vital health care to over 80 million Americans, including children, seniors, people with disabilities, and many within our AANHPI communities. In Washington State alone, nearly 2 million people rely on Apple Health (the state's Medicaid program). On July 4th, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act was signed, cutting almost $1 trillion from Medicaid. The Bill also curtails provider taxes, meaning states have to make a difficult choice: make cuts to other services (such as education) or raise taxes, or make even deeper cuts to Medicaid. Governor Ferguson's office estimates at least 250,000 Washingtonians will lose Medicaid Coverage . Read the Health Care Authority report below for more information.
