Asian Americans Against Warrantless Surveillance is a coalition led by Asian Americans Advancing Justice – AAJC, Asian American Scholar Forum, Chinese for Affirmative Action (CAA), and Stop AAPI Hate. The coalition joins over 50 Asian American and allied organizations to call on Congress to oppose the reauthorization of Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) without comprehensive reforms.
We recognize the grave dangers posed by unchecked national security programs in the United States and the persistent legacy of discrimination that the Asian American and Arab, Middle Eastern, Muslim, and South Asian (AMEMSA) communities have endured due to racial profiling and prejudice in the name of national security.
Please see below for a fact sheet on the impact of Section 702 on Asian Americans.
