Six NRIs lawmakers, often referred to as the “Samosa Caucus,” have been re-elected to the US House of Representatives, further strengthening the representation of Indian Americans in US politics. The group, which includes prominent figures in the House, continues to advocate on issues concerning both the US and the broader Indian American community.
The Samosa Caucus consists of Representatives Ami Bera, Ro Khanna, Raja Krishnamoorthi, Pramila Jayapal, Shri Thanedar, and newly elected candidate from their ranks. Each member brings a unique focus, with agendas ranging from healthcare and technology innovation to social justice and international relations. Notably, Ro Khanna and Raja Krishnamoorthi have been particularly active on matters impacting both nations, including Indo-US trade relations and policies on technology, defense, and immigration reform.
The success of these NRIs reflects the growing influence of the Indian American population in US political affairs. With their diverse professional backgrounds and dedication to public service, these lawmakers aim to bridge gaps between the two democracies, reinforce cultural ties, and address key policy issues. Their re-election underscores the contributions and perspectives Indian Americans bring to the broader American political landscape.
