Today, the Sikh Coalition and more than 40 partner organizations sent a letter to Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon urging DOJ Civil Rights to investigate the killing of American citizens by federal immigration agents. Read more: sikhcoalition.org/blog/2026/orga…

Asian Law Caucus@AsianLawCaucus·
📢 We & @sikh_coalition have filed a brief urging the court to clear the way for the CA DMV to re-issue licenses for commercial drivers unable to work since March. The pause has created chaos for Californians after the CA DMV cancelled 13,000 licenses due to bureaucratic error.

And finally, *we* have been clear and consistent regarding the President's actions, including by denouncing hateful rhetoric, highlighting the dangers of Project 2025, and opposing policy proposals on topics from trucking rules to immigration enforcement to voting rights.

Second, we consistently speak out against vile rhetoric about minority communities—whether that is directed at Haitian Americans, Palestinian Americans, Asian Americans, or others. In fact, we reposted strong condemnations of this anti-Asian rant from leaders in CAPAC last week.

First, we are not an "Indian American group." We represent the interests of Sikhs while standing for the civil and human rights of all communities.
Suhag A. Shukla@SuhagAShukla

So far "progressive" Indian American groups like @IAMCouncil @sikh_coalition & H4HR haven't condemned President Trump's sharing an anti-Indian rant. Instead some choose to target us! And like clockwork @mehdirhasan takes time to RT a fringe group who daftly cries about an old post where I satirically appropriated Heritage's "Project 2025" to share @HinduAmerican’s 2025 policy agenda. hinduamerican.org/hindu-american… They care more about feeding their ecosystem than Indian Americans.

Earlier this month, Norwich Mayor Swaranjit Singh Khalsa was the subject of an ugly slur. We spoke to a local newspaper about the meaning of the turban and how Sikhs like the mayor navigate persistent bias amidst progress in representation and education. theday.com/news/874680/ta…

Legal Defense Fund@NAACP_LDF·
BREAKING 🚨 The Supreme Court just struck down a fair congressional map in our case Louisiana v. Callais. Today’s decision completely eviscerates the Voting Rights Act, and protections under Section 2. As Justice Kagan stated in her dissent, this decision "renders Section 2 all but a dead letter."

The Investing in the American Dream Act would codify previous guidance and preserve access to SBA loans for far more immigrants. We are grateful to @SenMarkey for his leadership on this issue and look forward to supporting the bill.

For decades, SBA loans have helped entrepreneurs start and grow businesses across the country. Now, that door is being closed to immigrants for no reason. Members of our sangat built their livelihoods—trucking companies, gas stations, and family enterprises—with such resources.
