It would highlight that roughly 77 percent of Americans of Indian heritage attain college degrees and serve across public life as elected officials, doctors, nurses, judges, teachers, diplomats, business leaders, and members of the Armed Forces. It would also condemn rising online anti-Indian and anti-Hindu sentiment and a reported doubling of harassment incidents targeting South Asians.
