    Who We Are

    We are Citizens

    There are nearly 7 million AAPIs eligible to vote, and our electoral power is growing in both urban and rural areas.

    We are Farmers

    There are roughly 18,000 Asian American farm operators in the U.S., farming almost 2 million acres.

    We are Consumers

    Almost 500,000 AAPI households received SNAP benefits (food stamps) in 2010.
