In 2024, HRC's AANHPI Working Group is focusing our political efforts on a slate of priority candidates. We hope you'll join us in supporting these pro-equality champions running in tough races - their elections are critical to winning a pro-equality majority in the House of Representatives!
Kamala Harris
President of the United States
Vice President Kamala Harris helps lead the MOST pro-equality Administration in history, contrasting sharply with Trump's DANGEROUSLY harmful policies.
