In it, he shared that he would represent: “Not only the dreams of my parents, but the hopes of millions of Americans who stand for justice, fairness, and the rule of law. My commitment to these principles is deeply rooted in my family’s history. My father fled Idi Amin’s genocidal dictatorship in Uganda. My mother was born in Tanzania. They married in India and emigrated to New York, where I was born and raised in a bustling household that included my father’s seven siblings, their spouses and six children.”
His parents first immigrated to Canada to escape anti-Indian persecution in the 1970s.
