C100 Webinar: The Impact of Land Ownership Exclusion Laws on Diverse Communities

Join Committee of 100 (C100) and APA Justice for this eye-opening discussion on the troubling resurgence of alien land laws and the future of property rights and civil liberties. These historically discriminatory policies reemerging in state legislatures across the U.S. were originally designed to prevent non-citizens, particularly those from AAPI communities, from owning property. These laws are now being reframed as safeguards to national resources. They will discuss whether land ownership exclusion laws properly address national security concerns or whether they are merely a pretext that infringes upon civil rights and liberties under the guise of protection.

The panel of legal experts and advocates will delve into the history of alien land laws, examine their renewed impact on vulnerable communities, and discuss key cases, including a bill recently introduced in Florida. Whether you’re a policymaker, legal professional, journalist, or concerned citizen, this event is essential for anyone committed to upholding justice and equity in America.
