Statement in Response to the Shootings in Monterey Park and Half Moon Bay

Statement in Response to the Recent Shootings in Monterey Park and Half Moon Bay

Our hearts are with the victims of the recent shootings in Monterey Park and Half Moon Bay, their loved ones, and those impacted in the community. We are frustrated and horrified that the AANHPI community continues to suffer an uptick in preventable violence, and stand in solidarity with our fellow communities of color that repeatedly bear the brunt of systemic racism and inequities. We call on our nation’s leaders, once again, to enact policies that protect communities against senseless gun violence. And, in the wake of these tragedies, we also take this moment to cherish our community–our undeniable strength, resilience, vibrancy, voice and value.

As our community processes these tragedies, we encourage folks to prioritize self-care and stay connected.
