WASHINGTON, DC – Today, ASPIRE PAC announced an ambitious ASPIRE Townhouse project to celebrate AANHPI Heritage Month. ASPIRE PAC believes that a townhouse in Washington, DC will mark the AANHPI’s growing electoral power and will begin to raise toward the project. ASPIRE PAC Chair Grace Meng released the following statement:
“The AANHPI community is not only the fastest growing community of color in the country, but it has also increased its vote share and turnout rate in every battleground state since 2014. I cannot think of a better way to acknowledge our community’s political power than with a gathering space in our nation’s capital. To mark the celebration of AANHPI Heritage Month, ASPIRE PAC will begin to raise toward our ASPIRE Townhouse project so that the AANHPI community has a space to come together and strategize. We are thankful for the support of our community towards this project and look forward to welcoming them to a space they can call their own.”
