UCA deems this law also dangerous because it would legitimize and normalize discriminatory practice and racist behaviors towards Asian Americans.

Key Points: 
  • UCA deems this law also dangerous because it would legitimize and normalize discriminatory practice and racist behaviors towards Asian Americans.
  • "No less than other Americans, Chinese Americans have always played an important role in defending our national interests and security.
  • UCA will work with Chinese American Legal Defense Alliance (CALDA), Florida Asian American Justice Alliance (FAAJA) and others to challenge this misguided Florida law and see to it that it is struck down by the Federal court or repealed by the people of Florida.
  • UCA is calling for any concerned citizen or organization to contact us ( [email protected] ) to work in solidarity to defeat this discriminatory law.
