Yesterday the House of Representatives passed a package of legislation to improve hate crime data collection, in response to the surge of anti-Asian hate crimes. The bill already passed the Senate and President Biden has said he'll sign it. As a national union and as Local 1101 we have a very diverse membership, and strive to make sure all our members feel the support and backing of their union. Local 1101 stands in support of our Asian and Asian-American brothers and sisters, and against hate crimes of any sort.
