AAPI Data

Through our ongoing collaboration with the Associated Press, we are going beyond the data to hear directly from AAPI community members about the issues that move them. The latest AP story on our recent poll highlights a broad opposition to hardline immigration enforcement, while diving into respondent narratives that add critical nuance to the conversation. Thanks to Terry Tang and Linley Sanders for their excellent reporting on this timely issue. Read the full article at https://lnkd.in/guDc5D6k

The data from our newest survey with AP-NORC is out, and shows that our communities are deeply concerned with the economy and largely disapprove of current immigration enforcement policies. Key findings from survey show: 67% believe the administration has gone too far on deportations, and 73% hold an unfavorable view of ICE. 73% of AAPI adults say the current administration has hurt the cost of living, with large percentages citing groceries, housing, and healthcare as major financial stressors. A majority of AAPIs think that Trump has gone too far in using the U.S. military to intervene in foreign countries. 71% of adults say that Trump has gone too far and only 4% say he has not gone far enough.
