NEW: Our op ed today in @truthout, highlighting the experiences of our detained asylum-seeking Afghan community members. Afghans seeking refuge face insurmountable barriers, and when they seek asylum face detention and the inherent abuse of ICE prisons. truthout.org/articles/afgha…
Ahmad, a Syrian journalist & refugee, found sanctuary in the United States after being granted asylum. #Asylum not only offers him safety but also allows him to pursue his vital work of supporting his community, both locally and internationally. #WelcomeWithDignity

We joined 150+ organizations across the country to call on Congressional leaders to condemn anti-immigrant, extremist language. This language is vile and dangerous. #RespectImmigrants Full letter: bit.ly/4aGI05U Read more from @politico here. politico.com/newsletters/in…
Protecting the rights of asylum seekers is vital to our democracy. Let’s embrace humane policies and provide safety to those fleeing persecution. Discover our solutions here: humanrightsfirst.org/library/uphold…

Spoke w/ a Venezuelan mother who waited 8 1/2 mos (!) in Matamoros, Tamaulipas for a CBP1 appt. “We felt desperate,” she described of the uncertainty waiting. ⬇️
An Indigenous Miskito young adult from Nicaragua who doesn’t speak one of the only 3️⃣ languages CBP1 is available in was unable to use it and required support. 🔺@DHSgov must ensure equitable language access & 🛑 punishing people seeking asylum who enter w/o appts.
We agree with @RepRobertGarcia. Anti-immigrant rhetoric is cruel and dangerous — it strips people of their humanity and incites violence against those seeking safety and a better life. We must combat this extremist language.

We @humanrights1st have reported unrest in Bahrain’s Jau prison for years. Another crisis threatening since death of prisoner Husain Khalil on Monday. Building 7 has about 140 prisoners, electricity & water reportedly cut since yesterday & security forces amassing near it now
The human rights crisis in Gaza is so alarming that the State Dept must be made accountable in sharing with the American people all evidence that has led to this unbelievable assessment that Israel is complying with humanitarian protocols as U.S. weapons support this assault
