Quote
...a bicameral caucus consisting of members of the United States Congress who have a strong interest in promoting Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) issues and advocating the concerns of Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders...
Quote
To ensure that legislation passed by the United States Congress, to the greatest extent possible, provides for the full participation of Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders and reflects the concerns and needs of the Asian American and Pacific Islander communities;
To educate other Members of Congress about the history, contributions and concerns of Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders;
Quote
To establish policies on legislation and issues relating to persons of Asian and/or Pacific Islands ancestry who are citizens or nationals of, residents of, or immigrants to, the United States, its territories and possessions; and To provide a structure to coordinate the efforts, and enhance the ability, of the Asian American and Pacific Islander Members of Congress to accomplish those goals.[1]

What's the difference exactly...?

.... do I really have to explain what privilege and racism is to you?
Yes, please do.

You understand why congressional caucuses exist, right? They address specific issues or groups that have interests that need to be addressed. There are many issues impacting Black Americans and there are many issues impacting Asians and Pacific Islanders - issues that impact them because of racism in this country. Whites do not experience systemic racism and therefor do not need a congressional caucus.

Not every white person in America is Anglo-Saxon, ignorant.

Also, from what I can gather, this caucus is supposed to promote the knowledge Anglo-Saxon culture and it's postives. Which if you didn't know, laid the foundation to this little thing called the United States of America, it's political structure, identity, lanugage and it's tolerance of other religions. Something more and more people should be educated about....

...I thought you leftists were fans of appropriation of other cultures, because I always hear the terms "muh melting pot" "muh american project" - oh wait I forgot... they're some type of whites, therefore we can't in anyway let this prosper.

They don't actually care about "Anglo-Saxon" contributions, it's a dogwhistle

Explain how. Ever thought that maybe it's a counterreaction to the left's revisionism on history, and the cancellation & censorship of important historical figures?

You don't realize why calling a it the "America First" caucus is a dogwhistle? It's implying that non-Anglo Saxons are not Americans.
