A recent report from the Reflective Democracy Campaign found that Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders are drastically underrepresented in elected offices: Despite making up 6.1% of the U.S. population,
less than one percent of elected officials are members of the AAPI community.
This underrepresentation hurts our democracy– especially here in CA-47, a community that is 19% AAPI residents. We need a leader who has a deep, first-hand understanding of the issues we face. I’m running for Congress to empower communities like ours and bring all voices to the table.
We’re building a strong grassroots team to make that happen – Can you pitch in to help spread our positive message and give this district the reputation it deserves?

Local and national leaders alike are already taking notice of our race, and the historic opportunity we have to elect an AAPI leader to represent our fast-growing Asian-American community.
I’m proud of my heritage and the work I’ve done advocating for the AAPI community as the only Korean American in the State Senate. AAPI voters are going to play an important role in the outcome of this race, and with the endorsements of ASPIRE PAC, AAPI Victory Fund, and the Asian American Action Fund, I’m ready to put in the work and reach out to every community in the district.
A race this competitive is going to take as much early support as possible. If you’re with us, make a grassroots donation to help spread our message across CA-47!
Thanks for all you do.
