Chinese Americans gather in downtown Dallas to oppose ‘hateful, racist’ senate bills
Hundreds of people attended a rally Sunday afternoon at John F. Kennedy Memorial Plaza to protest against two senate bills that would, in part, ban people and businesses with ties to China from buying property.
Texas senate bills 147 and 552, both of which have been authored by Republican lawmakers, aim to add regulations that would ban people with ties to four countries from purchasing real estate or property in the state. TheMultiple organizations with ties to the Chinese American community have planned rallies in major Texas cities to protest the proposed legislation after Gov. Greg Abbott expressed his support for Senate Bill 147 on Twitter.
“You pass this law, other states will follow and anti-Asian hate will increase in this country — definitely,” Jin said. Allen resident Jerry Pi has lived in North Texas for 20 years and is the president of a software startup. Pi, who is a U.S. citizen, said he thinks SB 147 is unconstitutional and bad for the state’s economy.“I always viewed [Abbott] as a conservative leader with strong principles,” Pi said. “This is not something that a conservative should do.”
