#Afghanistan is facing an unprecedented #FoodSecurity & #Economic #Crisis as a result of the US #withdrawal. #Afghan women face hell on earth under #Taliban oppression. Our most recent report details it all. Read more here: bit.ly/3zdZ9E6 #SIV

This resolution is a tribute to the heroic actions of our nation’s veterans & civilian volunteers whose relentless work saved the lives of countless Afghan allies.

Members of our coalition met this afternoon with @StateDept reps to discuss #EHC.
The meeting went well and the coalition feels as though our questions were answered directly.
We learned a lot today, so be ready for this thread to be quite long. 🧵

Imagine being an American Citizen and given this horrific choice by @SecBlinken & his state dept:
Pick which of your family members fleeing Afghanistan to save, and which to be murdered by the Taliban.

This week I led 81 House Members in sending a bi-partisan letter to @POTUS outlining vital steps that must be taken to streamline ongoing evacuation and resettlement efforts for our Afghan friends and allies. bit.ly/KeatingLetter

Nothing we did moved @POTUS or his advisors. Not policy papers, nor back room meetings, nor front yard rallies. B/c the WH lacked as much empathy as they did strategic thinking. It’s hard for us as a human rights advocates to accept that reality

Enabling at-risk Afghan allies to escape is a moral imperative. They put their lives on the line to protect Americans, with the promise we’d protect them. nationalreview.com/2022/01/w…

There are all kinds of ways to engage--and try to solve the humanitarian crisis, and raise human rights concerns--that don't involve private jets. Wish you hadn't done this, @NorwayMFA.

Nearly five months after the United States military completed its withdrawal from Afghanistan, @craigmelvin shares the incredible rescue story of Shabir Kabiri, an Afghan graduate of West Point who was helped by his former roommate and professor.

For anyone not following this--the US govt has processed visa information received only partway thru Aug 26. Nothing after that. Our #AfghanAllies lives hang in the balance while waiting for US staff to check emails. – at Brooklyn, NY

We’re one year in, @POTUS.
The immigration system is still fucked, with Consulates backlogged through the roof and USCIS pulling a ~$20M scam on Afghan parole applicants. Technology behind for both DOS and DHS. Processing times increasing constantly.
Who else is not impressed?

🚨 To our stateside Afghans: you may receive a call from someone saying they work for the U.S. government, instructing you to purchase a Walmart gift card for them to load money onto. This. Is. A. Scam.
Do NOT respond to these calls, and please report it if you get one. 🚨

Time for New Lily Pad?
Monthlong(+) #Qatar & #Taliban disagreement on resuming Evac flights continues
Impact?
No DoS-sanctioned flights for AMCITs, LPRs & at-risk Afghans w/ current passports & visas
Leaves Afghan allies facing TB & winter

Our new neighbors arriving as part of @AlliesWelcome undergo an extraordinary screening and vetting process before they arrive. Our team though it might be helpful to lay that out here and make it available on our website for anyone curious.

Letters circling using German Embassy Letterhead regarding a flight for athletes are false. Do not trust these documents. They are not real. #AfghanEvac

Fake SIV notices are arriving via email. “You have been selected for a Special Immigrant Visa. Your email was chosen from the database of the Afghanistan Embassy in the USA”.
Has a USCIS attachment that references Humanitarian Parole (not SIV) and is signed by a USCIS person.
