I was honored to speak at a Filipino Americans for Harris event to rally behind the Vice President.
Earlier this week on Labor Day, I was honored to speak at a Filipino Americans for Harris event to rally behind the Vice President, who will become the first South Asian woman president with our help this November.
It was also an opportunity to reflect on the legacy of other South Asian and Filipino leaders throughout American history, like labor icon Larry Itliong, who my parents proudly organized alongside.
Larry fought for farmworkers’ rights during the Delano Grape Strike, during which time he reached out to fellow labor organizer Cesar Chavez to unite Filipino and Latino workers, because he recognized the importance of coalition building, collaboration, and partnership. They voted together, striked together, and ultimately won better working conditions and labor rights that we continue to experience today.
We need to usher in that same unity, solidarity, and collaborative spirit over the next 60 days if we’re going to defeat Donald Trump and make Kamala Harris the next president of the United States.
Will you help keep up the momentum and get out the vote for Harris in these final two months by splitting a grassroots donation to our campaigns today?

Together, we can make history and keep our country on a path of progress.
