Abstract

This measure would commemorate the 45 years since Southeast Asian Americans began resettling in the United States, honor the sacrifices made by Southeast Asian American communities on behalf of the United States, and recognize the contributions of Southeast Asian Americans to the economic, educational, political, and social culture of the United States. The measure would also oppose the deportation of Southeast Asian Americans who resettled to the United States as refugees from Cambodia, Laos, and Vietnam, and urge the President of the United States to place an immediate moratorium on the deportation of thousands of Southeast Asian Americans whose crimes occurred more than 5 years ago.
