Two Republican congresswomen are revoking their endorsements of Texas GOP congressional candidate Sery Kim after she said that she didn't want potential Chinese immigrants in the United States.
"As the first Korean American Republican women to serve in Congress, we want to empower and lift up fellow members of the (Asian American and Pacific Islander) community who want to serve their communities," California Reps. Young Kim and Michelle Steel said in a statement. "We talked with Sery Kim yesterday about her hurtful and untrue comments about Chinese immigrants, and made clear that her comments were unacceptable." During a candidate forum on Wednesday hosted by two Republican groups in Texas' 6th Congressional District, Kim responded to a question about the US' immigration crisis by saying "I don't want them here at all," referring to potential Chinese immigrants.More Related News
