Asian-American and Pacific Islander People, Health Care Justice, and COVID-19

Through the continuation of the Our Lives On The Line series, Health Care Voter is shining a light on the experience of some of the people hardest hit by this pandemic.

A/PIA people in the U.S. are being attacked from all sides by the coronavirus. Right now, A/PIA people are facing vicious racist attacks encouraged by the President’s rhetoric, skyrocketing unemployment, and declining business.

Join us as we hear from advocates, experts, and some of our elected officials about the disproportionate challenges threatening A/PIA people during this pandemic, and what all of us must do to hold the Trump administration accountable for putting profits and politics ahead of A/PIA people’s lives.

Text “OnTheLine” to 5-2-8-8-6 to get a text when this live-stream starts and go to https://healthcarevoter.org/ourlivesontheline/ to learn about other town halls in this series.
