Launch Party
LOBBYISTS, HILL STAFFERS LAUNCH NEW AAPI GROUP: In the wake of several turbulent years for the Asian American Pacific Islander community marked by rising levels of racist attacks and an increased focus on the lack of AAPI representation in positions of power, a pair of lobbyists has launched a new organization aimed at connecting AAPI staff around Washington with the aim of building out a pipeline to help rectify that issue.
