SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Information is available on the President’s Advisory Commission on Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders website at https:// www.hhs.gov/about/whiaanhpi/ commission/. The names of the 25 members of the President’s Advisory Commission on Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders are available at https:// www.hhs.gov/about/whiaanhpi/ commission/commissioners/. Purpose of Meeting: The President’s Advisory Commission on Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders, authorized by Executive Order 14031, will meet to discuss full and draft recommendations by the Commission’s six Subcommittees on ways to advance equity, justice, and opportunity for Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander communities. The Subcommittees are: Belonging, Inclusion, Anti-Asian Hate, Anti-Discrimination; Data Disaggregation; Language Access; Economic Equity; Health Equity; and Immigration and Citizenship Status. Background: Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander communities are among the fastest growing racial and ethnic populations in the United States according to the U.S. Census Bureau. However, in recent years, AA and NHPI individuals have faced increasing hate crimes and incidents that threaten their safety, as well as harmful stereotypes that often ignore socioeconomic, health, and educational disparities impacting these diverse communities. Tragic acts of anti-Asian violence increased during the COVID–19 pandemic, casting a shadow of fear and grief over many AA and NHPI VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:26 Aug 18, 2022 Jkt 256001 communities, in particular East Asian communities. Long before this pandemic, AA and NHPI communities in the United States, including South Asian and Southeast Asian communities, have faced persistent xenophobia, religious discrimination, racism, and violence. At the same time, AA and NHPI communities are overrepresented in the pandemic’s essential workforce in healthcare, food supply, education, and childcare, with more than four million AA and NHPIs manning the frontlines throughout the pandemic. Many AA and NHPI communities, and in particular Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander communities, have also been disproportionately burdened by the COVID–19 public health crisis. Evidence suggests that Native Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders are three times more likely to contract COVID–19 compared to white people and nearly twice as likely to die from the disease. On top of these health inequities, many AA and NHPI workers, families, and small businesses have faced devastating economic losses during this crisis, which must be addressed. The challenges AA and NHPI communities face are often exacerbated by a lack of adequate data disaggregation and language access. The President’s Advisory Commission on Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders works to advise the President on executive branch efforts to address these challenges and advance equity, justice, and opportunity for AA and NHPI communities. Public Participation at Meeting: Members of the public are invited to view the Commission meeting. Registration is required through the following link: https:// www.eventbrite.com/e/meeting-of-thepresidents-advisory-commission-on-aaand-nhpis-registration-391779191107. Please note that there will be no opportunity for oral public comments during the meeting of the Commission. However, written comments are welcomed throughout the development of the Commission’s recommendations to promote equity, justice, and opportunity for Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders and may be emailed to AANHPICommission@hhs.gov.

The President’s Advisory Commission on Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders (Commission) is governed by provisions of the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA), Public Law 92–463, as amended (5 U.S.C.
