Indian-American members of the U.S. Congress, often referred to as the "Samosa Caucus", have expressed concern over the increasing incidents of vandalism at Hindu temples across the United States, from New York to California. These attacks have reportedly led to a heightened sense of anxiety among Hindu Americans. The Hindu American Foundation (@HinduAmerican) has been providing detailed data on these attacks to congressional leaders for several months, expressing gratitude towards the Indian American Members of Congress for demanding a @CivilRights briefing. The members involved include Congressman Raja, Ro Khanna, Shri Thanedar, Rep Bera, and Rep Jayapal, who have all signed a letter requesting urgent action. This move highlights an alarming rise in hate crimes against Hindus, prompting a call for a response from the Justice Department.
