Empowering Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders for a strong and diverse America.

Who We Are

AAPI Victory Alliance (formerly AAPI Progressive Action) was founded in 2017 by leading progressive voices in the AAPI community, including former commissioners of President Obama’s Advisory Commission on Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders.

We build AAPI political power across the country by educating on progressive issues; creating and advocating for policies that affect our communities; and building alliances with organizations to help AAPIs exert their power and be the margin of victory at the local, state, and national levels.

 
 

Our Strategy

 

FORMULATE

Formulate and analyze domestic policies of importance to AAPIs and inform the public and press through mainstream and ethnic media, social media, and social networks.

 

COLLABORATE

Collaborate with national and local AAPI and allied organizations to promote a progressive agenda that include protection of civil and immigrant rights, access to quality education and health care, opportunities for economic growth that are mutually beneficial for business and labor, and protection of the environment.

 

PARTNER

Partner with national and local AAPI and allied organizations to increase the participation of AAPIs in the voting process and develop AAPI progressive leadership.

 

SUPPORT

Support progressive AAPI and other candidates at the local, state, and national levels.
