Joint Statement in Response to the Elimination of Minority-Serving Institutions at Federal Level
The California Asian American & Pacific Islander Legislative Caucus, in partnership with the California Commission on Asian and Pacific Islander American Affairs (CAPIAA) and Asian Pacific Americans in Higher Education (APAHE), condemns the federal administration’s decision to eliminate critical funding for Minority-Serving Institutions. This harmful action by the Trump administration undermines the mission of these institutions, which are dedicated to expanding opportunity, fostering success, and contributing to the strength of our society.
