Chinese American Citizens Alliance, Los Angeles Lodge
May 2, 2010 AAPI House Party
Thirteen enthusiastic members attended the house party on May 2, 2010 at the Los Angeles Lodge of the Chinese American Citizens Alliance (organized in 1912). We found that issues presented by the panelists are important and information they shared helpful. Two main topics of our discussion are: 1) Immigration reform, and 2) adequate API representation within the court system on all government levels. We emphasized our support for legal immigration and family reunification, at the same time we were concerned about the children of undocumented immigrants, and expressed our support for the passage of the DREAM ACT. The participants were extremely interested in endorsing the two Federal judgeship nominations and wished to urge Senate to approve the nominees Goodwin Liu and Edward Chen in a timely manner. Subsquently, a team of 15 delegates of the Grand Lodge travelled to Washington D.C. and presented the Alliance’s positions for our lawmaker’s consideration.
More sufficient time for the panelists as well as Q & A session would be beneficial to our participants. Thank you for sponsoring the event.
