voices in view a historical overview of discriminatory legislation by viravyne chhim and michelle plesa Asian Americans are haunted by numerous acts and laws that have prevented immigration into the United States. As Asian Americans, we can be proud of our political efforts that have helped shape a nation of which we have become an overwhelmingly large part. But there are many obstacles that continue to lie in our path. Asian American history is filled with laws created out of fear, ignorance, and hatred. The short timeline below will give you a brief overview of past discriminatory legislation. Discriminatory issues continue to persist in the Asian American community, despite what our judgment (and ethnic representation on campus) may tell us. Asian Americans are still vastly politically underrepresented in a nation where Asian American communities, resources, and problems are growing rapidly. There are approximately 10 million Asian Americans in the U.S.; 1/3 of them reside in California alone. Still, our voice remains at an “in-between” stage, locked outside of the white majority power establishment yet often disregarded in minority issues by our fellow people of color. Few people realize the history of our community’s participation in mainstream politics. Although Asian immigrants first stepped on American soil centuries ago and generations of Asians have labored long and hard in hopes of achieving the “American Dream”, Asian Americans were finally granted the right to vote a little over thirty years ago. Thus, the Asian American political voice has been silenced for as long as our settlement in America. Treated as pawns on a chessboard by traditional white capitalists, politicians, and other ethnic groups, Asian immigrants were acutely affected by the decisions of policymakers they did not support. Asian settlers were discriminated against by anti-Asian immigration laws, frustrated by racist housing and landowning policies, and disheartened about being denied naturalization rights. Their response to such discriminatory treatment was limited without a right to vote.

Underwood By Andrew Li-ren Wang See also: Congressman Robert A. Underwood's Official Website Over the span of his career, Congressman Robert Anacletus Underwood has been a champion for the island of Guam. As an educator and social activist, he spearheaded initiatives to preserve and promote Guam's native Chamorro culture. Now, as Guam's representative to the U.S. House of Representatives, he is an outspoken advocate for the political and social self-determination of the people of Guam and for numerous issues relevant to the Asian Pacific American community. Bob Underwood was born in Guam in 1948, only a few years after the liberation of the island from Japanese occupation during World War II. His formative years coincided with the transition of the governance of Guam from a virtual oligarchy of U.S. military officials to one in which the seeds of representative self-government were beginning to take root. For much of its history as a U.S. holding, Guam's government was one in which all executive seats were occupied by officers appointed by the U.S. Navy. The Organic Guam Act, passed in 1950, granted the Chamorro people American citizenship and established a representative government. By 1970, Guam had elected its own governor, Carlos Camacho, and by 1972, it had elected its first representative to Congress, Antonio Won Pat.

Home Press Room Coalition Statements >>sign-on letter opposing Domestic Security Enhancement Act (aka "Patriot II") Coalition Statement Sign-on letter opposing Domestic Security Enhancement Act (also known as "Patriot II") March 17, 2003 Dear Member of Congress: We, the undersigned organizations, write to urge you to oppose the Domestic Security Enhancement Act (DSEA), legislation whose existence was revealed in draft form on Friday, February 7, 2003. Like all Americans, we are deeply concerned by the continuing terrorist threats against our country, and like a growing number of Americans of every political persuasion, we are also worried that the DSEA, if enacted, would be the wrong remedy for this ongoing problem. Our reservations are based on our shared belief that the United States’ efforts to protect the country and punish those who were responsible for the September 11 attacks are best served by legislation that is directly focused on appropriate, responsible and effective anti-terrorism measures. Legislation that fails to respect our time-honored liberties, or focuses on efforts unconnected to fighting terrorism, detracts from this crucial mission. The DSEA is that sort of legislation.

White children must be educated separately from blacks, Indians and Chinese. 1868 The Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution is ratified. This Amendment states that everyone born in the US is a citizen, regardless of race. This means that children of Asian immigrants born in this country are US citizens, even though their parents are ineligible for citizenship. 1880 California's anti-miscegenation law passed.

Bill Wong: strategy communication research The New Elements of Legislative Advocacy By Bill Wong Alliances Compromise Many community-based organizations have been hindered by the tyranny of purist dogma that prevents them from compromising in order to pass legislation. Community activists seem to take great pride in losing battles rather than compromising on principle. This perspective has hindered their empowerment by marginalizing its leaders and polarizing debate. Other interest groups have found that compromise is like the foot in the door to future advancement. Other interests like labor unions and professional associations, like the California Medical Association, have found that incremental advancements result in major policy shifts in the long run. Newcomers to lobbying can learn a lot from a quote from a retiring legislator that goes, "sometimes you just have to take what you can get." Timing The ability to influence legislators ebbs and flows with the political tide for marginal communities and inexperienced organizations. These entities can only gain influence in election years with legislators who represent significant number of these constituencies in competitive districts. These special districts increase the influence of any marginal group that can provide key swing votes. For example, major funding for Asian American projects that came through in this year's Budget Act were the product of legislators engaged in competitive districts with large Asian American constituencies. Efforts to fund the same projects would have much less success in off-election years because the diminished interest by politicians to serve smaller voting constituencies.

dd mission statement board of directors program for action membership services ... home: about jacl The History of the JACL The Japanese American Citizens League, the nation's oldest and largest Asian American civil rights organization, was founded in 1929 to address issues of discrimination targeted specifically at persons of Japanese ancestry residing in the United States. In California, where the majority of Japanese Americans resided, there were over one hundred statutes in California that proscribed the limits of rights of anyone of Japanese ancestry. Organizations like the Grange Association and Sons of the Golden West exerted powerful influence on the state legislature and on Congress to limit participation and rights of Japanese Americans, and groups like the Japanese Exclusion League were established with the sole purpose of ridding the state of its Japanese population, even those who were American citizens by birth. Amidst this hostile environment, the JACL was established to fight for the civil rights primarily of Japanese Americans but also for the benefit of Chinese Americans and other peoples of color. Although still a small, California-based organization, the JACL was one of only a few organizations in the 1920s and 1930s willing to challenge the racist policies of the state and federal governments. With limited resources and virtually no experience in state or federal politics, the JACL nevertheless took it upon itself to set the course for civil rights for persons of Asian ancestry in the West Coast region of the United States as well as at the federal level by combating congressional legislation aimed at excluding the rights of Japanese Americans and Asian Americans.

Some citizens feared that their culture was being threatened or that they would lose jobs to newcomers willing to accept low wages. In 1924 Congress passed the Johnson-Reed Immigration Act. For the first time, the United States set limits on how many people from each country it would admit. The number of people allowed to emigrate from a given country each year was based on the number of people from that country already living in the United States. As a result, immigration patterns over the next 40 years reflected the existing immigrant population, mostly Europeans and North Americans.

Mid-Coast Board of REALTORS hillgdns@gwi.net NAR SURVEY SHOWS PUBLIC SUPPORT FOR OPEN SPACE DEPENDS ON USE AND COST WASHINGTON, DC (April 25, 2001)—Voters’ support for preserving open space in their communities depends upon the costs taxpayers would bear for local governments to acquire land and the uses to which the land would be put, according to a national survey released today by the National Association of Realtors The survey found that voters are more likely to support creating new open space when it will be used for neighborhood parks, playgrounds, playing fields and walking trails rather than golf courses. Though three out of four voters would like their local governments to buy land to create new open space in their communities, most oppose increasing their property taxes by more than $50 a year to pay the cost of acquiring land. In areas under pressure by development, the survey found that more than 80 percent of voters support preserving farmland, natural areas, stream corridors, true wilderness areas and historic sites, but only 58 percent support preserving fallow fields no longer used for farming. To meet their communities’ needs for open space, voters oppose government directives such as restrictions on suburban expansion or zoning laws that permit houses to be built only on large lots, while they support allowing cluster development—homes built on smaller lots that allow for the preservation of significant open space in new developments. By even greater margins, they prefer that non-profit groups and local governments purchase land for open space. However, only 50 percent of voters are willing to pay an additional $50 a year in property taxes to cover the cost of acquiring open space. Only 31 percent would pay $100 more annually in taxes.
