Senate votes to open debate on COVID-19 Hate Crimes Act amid rise in anti-Asian violence in US By Chris Williams The COVID-19 Hate Crimes Act aims at reducing anti-Asian violence in the U.S. WASHINGTON - In a rare show of bipartisanship, the Senate voted 92 to 6 to move forward and discuss a bill aimed at COVID-19 hate crimes, specifically those targeting Asian communities in the U.S. Though timely, the COVID-19 Hate Crime Act is also a relatively modest measure that supporters see as a first step in a federal response to the rise in hate crimes targeting Asian communities.

White House names Erika Moritsugu as Asian American and Pacific Islander liaison

White House names Erika Moritsugu as Asian American and Pacific Islander liaison Moritsugu, whose official title will be deputy assistant to the President and Asian American and Pacific Islander senior liaison, “will bring her experience and expertise to the Biden-Harris Administration where she will be a vital voice to advance the President and the Administration’s priorities,” the statement said. The announcement comes less than a month after the White House committed to naming a senior-level AAPI liaison following pressure from Sen. Tammy Duckworth of Illinois and Sen. Mazie Hirono of Hawaii, both Democrats who expressed frustration with the lack of AAPI representation in the Cabinet and top administration roles and threatened to block the nominations of non-diverse administration picks.
