@USIRCOnline is determined to create a pro-India majority in the US Congress
With our partners, USIRC is sponsoring a fundraiser for @NirajAntani. If elected, Mr. Antani will be the first Hindu-American Republican in the US Congress. How about that for making history! pic.twitter.com/We50RLCYaC

Christians, Hindus, Ahmadis, & Shias are being targeted for their religious practices. The U.S. and int’l community must continue demanding these atrocities end and reevaluate their relationship w/ Pakistan. #ExpressionNotOppression 2/2🧵

@USIRCOnline remembers the 130th anniversary of Swami Vivekananda’s Chicago speech and the 22nd anniversary of 9/11. The former promoted unity & dialogue between the Eastern and Western worlds, while the latter showed the horrific nature of radical fundamentalism #NeverForget

@USIRCOnline met with @VivekGRamaswamy, the first major Hindu & Indian-American candidate in the Republican Party to run for President. We discussed US-#India defense and trade ties.

@USIRCOnline met w/ Assemblywoman @LauraFriedmanCA, a candidate for California’s 30th Congressional District. She acknowledged how divisive #SB403 is and will scrutinize it in the Assembly.

We’re concerned that Ro Khanna doesn’t have the best interests of the US-India relationship at heart. He likes to strut himself as a profile in courage being an Indian-American who stands up against India, but he appears to be more of a profile in social media grandstanding (8/8)

@USIRCOnline met with @Mike_Feuer, who is running for Congress from California’s 30th Congressional District. He believes the US-India relationship is a force for good & will define the 21st Century. He endorses current US policy, designating Kashmir an internal matter of #India pic.twitter.com/FeqOM10uP8

@USIRCOnline’s Chairman @adesaidds met with @RepYoungKim, Chair of the House Subcommittee on the Indo-Pacific.

The US and the world have a real partner in #India on climate change. Thanks to the leadership of @PMOIndia, India for the first time is committed to net-zero emissions. No other Indian government has shown a greater commitment to clean energy & conservation than @narendramodi’s https://t.co/jK9rSt8rs4

@USIRCOnline opposes S. Res. 424, a Senate resolution sponsored by @SenatorBaldwin targeting #India for alleged human rights abuses
We urge Senators to oppose the resolution. @tammybaldwin lacks foreign policy experience and does not even sit on the Foreign Relations Committee pic.twitter.com/XYcnNMmGfd

Canadian PM @JustinTrudeau‘s accusations against the Indian Government were irresponsible, baseless, and amateurish@USIRCOnline is monitoring his fiasco closely so it doesn’t spill into US-India ties. US lawmakers should refrain from comments until a full inquiry has concluded

@USIRCOnline congratulates #India, @isro & Prime Minister @narendramodi on the #Chandrayaan3Landing
For millennia, ancient Sanskrit epics described of vimanas or flying chariots. #Chandrayaan3 is India’s reclamation of its glorious past and marks its dawn as a modern space power pic.twitter.com/QVkDS1l3lD

@USIRCOnline thanks @RepMcCormick for introducing H Res 540, reaffirming #India’s sovereignty over Arunachal Pradesh. In March, we asked Congressman McCormick and his team to draft it after a similar Senate resolution had been referred to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. https://t.co/0iwM1P6li4 pic.twitter.com/mWXRwVWVh5

Why does @RoKhanna badger #India so much? @USIRCOnline uncovered that Ro gets money from Pakistani-American businessman & Democratic Party mega-donor Tahir Javed. Ro visits Javed’s condo. He’s pictured in 2019 talking to Javed while standing w/ Pak PM Imran Khan. Follow the money pic.twitter.com/G3iA7JmIpf

@USIRCOnline asks you to call your Senator to support #SRes75, a resolution reaffirming Arunachal Pradesh as an inviolable part of #India. It’s backed by @SenJeffMerkley @JohnCornyn @SenatorHagerty
Let’s send a firm message to the Chinese Communist Party! https://t.co/pB5aCkONsw

@USIRCOnline disapproves of the visit by @UnderSecStateJ to #India. A sermon on civil society is insulting and inconsistent with the goal of a free & open Indo-Pacific. America urgently needs friends to thwart Chinese expansionism. The world today doesn’t like or trust the #CCP. pic.twitter.com/husWErkvt8

@USIRCOnline met w/ the foreign policy team of @RepGregStanton of #Arizona‘s 4th Congressional district. Stanton won’t back Ilhan Omar’s anti-India resolution.

@USIRCOnline is pleased by the 2+2 Ministerial Dialogue. The US & #India stand with #Israel against terrorism. Hamas must release all hostages. US & India also pledge to build up their joint maintenance, repair and overhaul sectors to service military aircrafts and naval vessels pic.twitter.com/D2d3tju8WI

@USIRCOnline stands with #Israel@narendramodi showed moral clarity as India’s first Prime Minister to staunchly back Israel
Some members of Congress like @JakeAuch, @MikeLevin & @danielsgoldman support Israel yet criticize India. But reproaching #India only abets Israel’s foes pic.twitter.com/RyXkTEzByi

@USIRCOnline applauds Congressional approval of the GE-HAL jet engine deal. However, we still need a formal, accelerated pathway for US-#India defense transfers
USIRC backs @michaelgwaltz‘s HR 4312 & @SenatorWarner‘s S2906 to upgrade #India‘s eligibility for military transfers https://t.co/6lu0CrpurK

@USIRCOnline calls on the US Congress to hold a swift vote in favor of the recently announced, historic deal between President @JoeBiden & Prime Minister @narendramodi for joint licensing and co-development of GE jet engines. It would be a fitting reply to Xi Jinping and the CCP pic.twitter.com/TgiReo13Rm

@USIRCOnline has serious reservations regarding @RepRoKhanna‘s commitment to the bipartisan US-#India relationship. While we’re pleased to see an Indian-American ascend political ranks to serve as co-chair of the India Caucus, we are concerned about @RoKhanna‘s track record (1/8)

@USIRCOnline met w/ Congressman @DavidSchweikert from Arizona’s 1st Congressional District. He thinks the 21st Century can be the Indian Century as #India pursues “minimum government, maximum governance.” He appreciates Hindu culture & cooks his own dosa too
