Hindu Americans deserve credible representatives in government and civil society. Those representatives do not work with hate movements in the US or India. They reject violence and bigotry in all forms.

That's why our Non-Violence pledge is so important. Organizations linked to the RSS may claim to represent Hindu Americans. But they traffic in Islamophobia and build bridges with the far right in the US. They put Hindu Americans in danger.

Anti-South Asian racism and Islamophobia have become defining features of right-wing politics ahead of the midterms. As South Asian Americans face these twin threats head-on, we cannot afford to have organizations linked to hate movements represent us. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/24/u...

South Asians Face Surging Racism in America

Social media posts, including from the Department of Homeland Security and a Texas Republican candidate, have helped stir fear among people of South Asian heritage.

As progressive Hindus, we need champions for justice, truth, and human rights to represent us in Congress. We know he will continue to advance a progressive vision to build a just future for all of us and will exemplify our Hindu values of truth, peace, and justice.

South Asian Texans help make the state a global powerhouse. At a time of rising Islamophobia and anti-Indian racism, we reject politicians like French, who would rather engage in racism than serve the people of Texas. Hindu Texans deserve real champions against hate.

Hindus for Human Rights Action @hfhraction.bsky.social · 16/09/2026

Indian and Hindu Americans cannot make common cause with Islamophobes, and we reject Hindu nationalist attempts to build bridges with the far right in the US - these bridges are a direct threat to Indian and Hindu American safety.

The Texas GOP convention built a midterm agenda on Islamophobic screeds warning about the rise of Sharia law. They scapegoated Texas’s two Muslim lawmakers, State Representatives Salman Bhojani and Dr. Suleiman Lalani. Now, they've turned to bullying other South Asians.

Hindus for Human Rights Action @hfhraction.bsky.social · 16/09/2026

French’s attack on young South Asian American students is directly connected to the Texas Republican Party’s Islamophobia at the center of their midterm campaign. The attack also shows that French and his party have no ideas on how to improve the lives of Texans.

Hindus for Human Rights Action @hfhraction.bsky.social · 16/09/2026

While young Hindu Americans fight racist attacks that have become the foundation of right-wing politics in the US, they are also seeing Hindu spaces being taken over by far-right forces that seek to build bridges with the very people who hate them.

Over the weekend, Texas Railroad Commissioner candidate Bo French tweeted a racist comment against UT students of South Asian descent. Like others across the country, we were shocked, but not surprised. After all, politicians like French have been trafficking in hate for years.

The RSS and its affiliates have tried to monopolize representation of South Asian Americans while dividing and endangering our communities. With this pledge, political leaders are refusing to let super-rich extremists speak over our communities and hijack our democracy.

121

Hindus for Human Rights Action @hfhraction.bsky.social · 31/08/2026

Hindu American leaders, like Rep. Jayapal and Rep. Khanna are showing how dedicated Hindu Americans truly are to fighting Hindu nationalism. The RSS does not represent Hindus in India or anywhere else.

Hindus for Human Rights Action @hfhraction.bsky.social · 31/08/2026

@rokhanna.bsky.social has also led this effort by taking the historic step of giving away $6,600 in donations from a pro-MAGA billionaire donor with links to the RSS.

111

Hindus for Human Rights Action @hfhraction.bsky.social · 31/08/2026

And for those who think this pledge is anti-Hindu, @jayapal.house.gov has been a leader against Hindu supremacy throughout her time in Congress.

120

Hindus for Human Rights Action @hfhraction.bsky.social · 31/08/2026

The signatories have committed to rejecting money and support from organizations and individuals linked to the RSS. This is a resounding rejection of a movement that insists that the RSS network can credibly speak for Hindu Americans.

Hindus for Human Rights Action @hfhraction.bsky.social · 31/08/2026

Today, HfHR Action and @sacreddemocracy.bsky.social announced a historic pledge: more than 90 political leaders have disavowed the RSS.

Hindus for Human Rights Action @hfhraction.bsky.social · 05/08/2026

It's clear today, as always, that the Hindutva movement does not represent Hindu Americans. And now, there is a political voice for the majority that rejects Hindu majoritarianism: Hindus for Human Rights Action.

Hindus for Human Rights Action @hfhraction.bsky.social · 05/08/2026

In the past, we've held Thanedar to account for taking on Hindu nationalist positions and carrying out policies that were proposed by Hindu nationalist-aligned groups, often at the cost of Hindu Americans.

Hindus for Human Rights Action @hfhraction.bsky.social · 05/08/2026

Finally, last night, @donavanmckinney.bsky.social took down Shri Thanedar. Rep. Thanedar's time in Congress has been marked by his lack of engagement with his constituents and his blatant pursuit of his donors' interest.

Hindus for Human Rights Action @hfhraction.bsky.social · 05/08/2026

Then, in New York, @david4queens.com defeated Jenifer Rajkumar. And David built a coalition of working-class Hindu, Muslim, and Sikh New Yorkers to show that values matter far more than identity. The people of AD-38 deserve an Assemblymember who shows up for them, not for their donors.

Hindus for Human Rights Action @hfhraction.bsky.social · 05/08/2026

While Israni tried to convince Hindu voters that Aisha Wahab was against them, Hindus saw right through Israni's ruse. Wahab, not Israni, will be a credible and fearless advocate for Hindu Americans in the US House of Representatives.

Hindus for Human Rights Action @hfhraction.bsky.social · 05/08/2026

Next, in California, voters resoundingly rejected Rakhi Israni, who spent millions trying to buy her way to a Congressional seat, despite her support for Laura Loomer, a well-known Islamophobe and anti-Hindu bigot.

First, we organized in Illinois to stop Raja Krishnamoorthi and his crypto and MAGA donors from buying a senate seat in Illinois. Krishnamoorthi was defeated heavily, and the coalition at the heart of this defeat was held together by anti-Hindutva South Asians led by @sacreddemocracy.bsky.social.

Hindu American PAC is 0/4 in its key races. Hindu American voters played a critical role in taking down Hindu nationalist politicians in Democratic primaries.

Progressive Hindu Americans are building a movement. For too long, far-right groups have monopolized the Hindu American political identity in US politics. But that changes now.

Rep. Tlaib has been a steadfast ally and advocate against Hindu nationalism and caste discrimination. And she's been a consistent advocate for human rights around the world. We welcome our continued partnership with her!

Rep. Jayapal has been at the forefront of advocating for a human rights-focused US approach to South Asia. She has shown how Hindu American political leaders can reject Hindu nationalism and advocate for Hindu Americans.

Props to the brave students in India who forced the resignation of the Modi government’s education minister. These brave students staged a peaceful sit-in protest that lasted a month, went on hunger strike, and endured violence from the Delhi police. (1/2)

Donovan knows that this political moment requires someone who fights for the people. He also understands that our struggles against authoritarianism here are connected to a global fight against right-wing religious nationalism that seeks to divide us.

As progressive Hindus, we know that Meg will stand up against Hindutva forces in New Jersey who try to weaponize faith and caste against minority communities, and that she will do everything to keep people safe from hate and discrimination, no matter their background.

She is a proven champion, advocating for her immigrant neighbors in Queen City being targeted by ICE, and is working to tackle issues of affordability, access, and equity for young people and working families who are just trying to get by.

Senator Wahab has demonstrated her dedication to fight for every one of her constituents. As Hindu Americans, we are proud to endorse Senator Wahab, who has stared down the forces of hate and fearlessly represented all segments of our community.

As the cost of living skyrockets, and vulnerable communities are thrown under the bus by politicians who claim to care for their constituents, we need people like Patrick who will speak truth to power and do everything to deliver positive change.

Queens boasts the largest and most diverse South Asian communities in NYC—and those communities deserve an Assemblymember who will protect them from discrimination, including caste discrimination, & fight to secure them a livable future in which they are safe and get to not just survive, but thrive.

Excited to endorse Patrick Martinez for NY State Assembly District 30. Patrick will be a great champion for Queens up in Albany. He cares immensely for the working families, immigrant communities, and generations of Queens residents he calls his neighbors.
