George Frisbie Hoar was born in Concord,
Massachusetts. He was a member of an extended
family that was politically prominent in 18th and
19th century New England. Through his mother,
Sarah Sherman, Hoar was a grandson of Roger
Sherman, one of the Founding Father of the United
States, the only person to have signed all four great
state papers: Continental Association, Declaration of
Independence, the Articles of Confederation and the
United States Constitution.
Hoar graduated from Harvard University in 1846, then studied at Harvard Law
School and settled in Worcester, Massachusetts where he practiced law before
entering politics. Initially a member of the Free Soil Party, he joined
the Republican Party shortly after its founding, and was elected to
the Massachusetts House of Representatives in 1852, and the Massachusetts
Senate in1857. He served in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1869 through
1877, and then served in the U.S. Senate from 1879 until his death. He was a
Republican, who generally avoided party partisanship and did not hesitate to
criticize other members of his party whose actions or policies he believed were in
error.
Hoar was long noted as a fighter against political corruption, and campaigned for
the rights of African Americans and Native Americans. He argued in the Senate in
favor of Women’s suffrage as early as 1886. He opposed the Chinese Exclusion
Act of 1882, describing it as “nothing less than the legalization of racial
discrimination.” He voted against all the Chinese Exclusion laws. In fact he was
the only United States Senator to vote against the 1902 extension of the Chinese
Exclusion Act. “I hold that every human soul has its rights, dependent upon
individual personal worth and not dependent up color or race... As this bill
violates that principle, I am bound to record my protest, if I stand alone.” -
Senator George Hoar, April 16, 1902 - The yeas and nays were taken; and
resulted - yeas 76, nays 1; Senator George Frisbie Hoar Stood Alone.

Spirit of New England Award 2022
The Josiah Quincy Elementary School (JQES) celebrated their 175 th
Anniversary this year. It was founded in 1847 and is consistently ranked among
the top public schools in Massachusetts. JQES draws upon the energy of its
surrounding neighborhoods and the diversity of its students to create a vibrant
center for learning. JQES is a candidate for the International Baccalaureate
Primary Years Programme. It offers a rigorous academic program that
also provides a window into the world. We believe the best way to teach children
is to engage their love of learning by making them partners in their own
education. JQES provides a challenging academic program that gives our
students the means to meet high standards and excel to the best of their abilities.
We foster sound habits and a healthy mind and body and instill in them such
virtues as integrity, respect, and self-discipline. We provide a nurturing
environment and effective teaching methods that promote independent learning

The Congressional Gold Medal for
Chinese American World War II Veterans
By Maj. Gen. Bill Chen, U.S. Army Retired
The Congressional Gold Medal is an award bestowed by the United States
Congress, and is Congress’s highest expression of national appreciation for
distinguished achievements and contributions by individuals or as a group.
On May 4, 2017, bills were introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives and
the U.S. Senate for the award of the Congressional Gold Medal, collectively, to
Chinese American veterans of World War II. Representatives Ed Royce (R-CA) and
Ted Lieu (D-CA) were lead co-sponsors to H.R. 2358 on the House side; and
Senators Tammy Duckworth (D-IL) and Thad Cochran (R-MS) were lead cosponsors
of S. 1050 on the Senate side.
The bills were the result of a campaign organized by the Chinese American Citizens
Alliance to recognize Chinese American servicemen and servicewomen who served
when the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 was still in place – they fought for their
country in the face of discrimination and injustice. After passage of the Senate
and House bills by unanimous consent, Public Law 115-337, The Chinese American
World War II Veteran Congressional Gold Medal Act, was enacted on December
20, 2018.
Chinese American World War II Veterans served in every theater of war and in
every branch of the services: Army, Army Air Forces, Marine Corps, Navy, Coast
Guard, and Merchant Marine. In contrast to other minority groups like Japanese
Americans and African Americans, Chinese Americans were predominately
integrated into the U.S. Armed Services. The only all-Chinese American units were
the 14 th Air Service Group and the 987 th Signal Company assigned to the China
Burma India theater.

2020 Rose Parade Float: American Heroes
” i
September 2, 2020 marked the 75 th Anniversary of America’s Victory in World War II. The Chinese
American Heritage Foundation (CAHF) proudly sponsored “American Heroes” a 75 feet long float
which won the “Extraordinaire Award” in the 2020 Rose Parade.
Our float paid homage to the contributions and sacrifices of the men and women of the “Greatest
Generation” who served in the U.S. Army, U.S. Army Air Corps/Air Force, U.S. Navy, U.S. Marine
Corps, U.S. Coast Guard and the U.S. Merchant Marine, and also those on the home front who
worked in factories, shipyards, military industries, farms, etc. Special tribute was paid to our 20,000
Chinese American World War II Veterans who defend and protect America's freedom and democracy.
These veterans join past Congressional Gold Medal recipients: Filipino World War II Veterans, the
Nisei 100th Infantry Battalion and Nisei 442nd Regimental Combat Team, Women Air Force Service
Pilots (WASP), the Tuskegee Airmen, Native American Code Talkers, the Crew of the USS
Indianapolis, the Monuments Men, and the Military Intelligence Service, etc. Our float riders and
walkers were a diverse representation of Congressional Gold Medal recipients and descendents.
