New York, New York – Andrew Yang's wife Evelyn took to Twitter to vent her outrage over a cartoon of her husband published by the New York Daily News.

"I can’t believe my eyes," Evelyn Yang wrote on Twitter on Tuesday morning. "To publish this racist disfiguration of @AndrewYang as a tourist, in NYC where I was born, where Andrew has lived for 25 years, where our boys were born, where 16% of us are Asian and anti-Asian hate is up 900%."

The cartoon depicted New York mayoral candidate Andrew Yang exiting the subway and walking past a man and woman in a souvenir shop. The speech bubble above the couple says, "The tourists are back!"

The image was featured in an article slamming Yang for his alleged unfamiliarity with the daily lives of average New Yorkers, The Hill reported.

"Andrew Yang may be a quick study, but all the cramming he’s done since jumping into the mayor’s race can’t make up for years of inattention to New York politics and policies, best evidenced by the fact that he has never bothered to vote in a local election," the article read.

In leveling the accusations, the editorial pointed to Yang's uncertainty over the New York transit authority's exact amount of debt and inability to answer a question about police law.

The Asian American and Pacific Islanders Victory Alliance also responded to the cartoon with a tweet: "This is disgusting and wrong. Every single day Asian Americans have to fight the notion that we are foreigners. We are here and we’re not going anywhere. That’s why AAPI representation like @andrewyang is so important. Do better @NYDailyNews."

The New York Daily News did not respond to requests for comments on the cartoon. Andrew Yang is expected to address the incident later on Tuesday.
