As the Trump Administration continues to slash staff and funding at the Office of Minority Health (OMH) and the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), we must recommit ourselves to expanding access to mental health care and supporting the well-being of our communities.
Will continue working to expand access to mental health care and support the well-being of AANHPI communities.
Occurrences
Evidence
The official AANHPI issue page says Chu will continue to stand with AANHPI communities and points to her May 7, 2026 introduction of an AANHPI Mental Health Day resolution.
Assessments
Chu’s office page documents a concrete same-term action on May 7, 2026: introduction of an AANHPI Mental Health Day resolution. That shows real follow-through on the promise to support mental health access and AANHPI well-being, but it is an introduction effort rather than a completed policy or program change, so the claim is only partially delivered.
