A congressional group representing Americans of Asian and Pacific heritage backed legislation to reverse a six-decade-old law and award veterans’ benefits to Filipinos who fought with US forces in World War II.


Rep. Mike Honda said Wednesday that the Congressional Asian Pacific American Caucus, which he heads, considers giving full equity of benefits for an estimated 20,000 surviving veterans a top legislative goal of the caucus.


Both Honda and Rep. Bob Filner, the bill’s sponsor, are Democrats from California, where many Filipino immigrants live.
