The Asian Pacific American (APA) Legacy is a public service campaign and is part of the strategic partnership between the United States Capitol Historical Society (USCHS) and the Asian Pacific American Institute for Congressional Studies (APAICS).

The campaign is to educate and raise the awareness of the contributions APAs have made in U.S. history by using traditional and social media outlets.  Particularly throughout APA Heritage month, May, this campaign will highlight the achievements and contributions made by Members of Congress of Asian American and Pacific Islander descent and the impact their actions have had on society.

The APA Legacy public service campaign is part of USCHS’  APA Members of Congress (MOC) History Project.  The APA MOC History Project creates an accessible public record of the public service and contributions APA MOCs have made for the betterment of all citizens of the United States.  This public record provides a deeper appreciation for the human dimension of representative government.
