And while APAs have higher incomes. the U.S. Census counts 1.3 million Asian and Pacific Islanders living in poverty. There are still many wrongs to be righted. Some of them are decades old. On March 1. 2007. I reintroduced the Filipino Veterans Family Reunification Act. H.R. 1287. a companion bill to S. 671. introduced by Senator AKAKA. It will accelerate the immigration process for the sons and daughters of the Filipino veterans who fought with our American troops in World War 11. I am also a cosponsor of the Filipino Veterans Equity Act. H.R. 760. to fulfill our promise of full veterans benefits to those Filipino soldiers.
