NATIONAL ACE STATEMENT ON PRESIDENT-ELECT TRUMP AND VICE PRESIDENT-ELECT VANCE

Washington, D.C. –The National Asian Pacific Islander American Chamber of Commerce and Entrepreneurship (National ACE) congratulates President-Elect Donald Trump and Vice President-Elect J.D. Vance on their election, and we look forward to working closely with the Trump-Vance Administration as they take office in January, 2025.

From 2016 to 2020, National ACE built a productive relationship with the Trump Administration, advocating for policies that expanded access to capital, reformed the tax code, and increased opportunities for Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) entrepreneurs. Our collaboration with both parties through the White House Initiative on Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders (WHIAANHPI) has been pivotal in advancing key issues, and we are eager to continue our engagement with WHIAANHPI under the Trump-Vance Administration.

National ACE remains committed to advancing policies that affect the AANHPI small business community, including tax reform, capital access, federal contracting, and the creation of more pathways for AANHPIs to start and expand their businesses. Together, we look forward to fostering an environment where AANHPI entrepreneurs can continue to grow and thrive.
