This resolution expresses support for designating September 22-28, 2025, as "Asian American and Native American Pacific Islander-Serving Institutions Week" , marking the 18th anniversary of their authorization. These institutions are degree-granting postsecondary schools with at least 10 percent Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander undergraduate enrollment, established to improve the quality of education for these students. They are critically important, enrolling 46 percent of all Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander undergraduates, many of whom are low-income and first-generation. AANAPISIs provide culturally relevant academic and co-curricular programs, enhancing retention, transfer, and graduation rates while preserving diverse cultures and histories. The House of Representatives recognizes their achievements in providing quality educational opportunities and encourages eligible institutions to seek funding for their unique student needs. It calls upon the public to observe this week with appropriate activities, celebrating the significant contributions of these institutions to higher education and cultural enrichment.
