Chairman's MessageWelcome to the Congressional Asian Pacific American Caucus (CAPAC) website. Since its inception in 1994, CAPAC has continued its commitment to promote and secure equal rights for not only Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders (AAPI), but all Americans. Additionally, CAPAC has served to educate other Members of Congress about the history, contributions and concerns of AAPIs. The AAPI community is exceedingly diverse and, with over 15 million AAPIs in the United States today, it is increasingly vital to support and foster within the various sectors the critical need for community awareness, involvement, and leadership. CAPAC will join together in solidarity to take its place at the policymaking table, and speak with one voice. We must advance an agenda that reflects the essence of the AAPI community’s needs. CAPAC has served as a leader in tackling critical issues within the AAPI community. After all these years, we can clearly see how far we have come as a community. However, let us not be satisfied with our progress thus far; instead, let us drive with increasing determination to where we ought to be. Sincerely, |
