How are Asian Americans faring during the Obama Administration? Asian Americans continue to be severely underrepresented in the federal judiciary, although some progress has been made in the past two years. Since Obama’s election, the number of AAPI women on the district court has tripled from 2 to 6. Still, only 14 Asian Americans are federal judges and only one is an appellate federal judge out of over 800 federal judges.
