  • Stephanie Chan, data and research director at Stop AAPI Hate, noted that aggressive immigration enforcement rhetoric fuels anti-AAPI sentiment, stating, "The rhetoric that's being used to justify very harsh and aggressive immigration enforcement, all of this is also feeding into anti-AAPI hate persisting."
  • About one-quarter of AAPI adults reported experiencing a hate crime or incident in the past year, down from 36% in October 2023; Preliminary FBI data confirms an overall decline in bias crimes between 2024 and 2025.
  • Ambar Capoor, 52 and India-born, has faced ongoing discrimination in his Los Angeles neighborhood and now carries his U.S. passport card on a lanyard due to current political climate concerns.
  • Only about 1 in 10 AAPI adults cite discrimination as a major stressor amid inflation concerns, yet about 3 in 10 believe it is "extremely" or "very" likely they will face discrimination in the next five years.
