I’m so ashamed …
This week, the UK Home Secretary proposed shocking #asylum reforms that could seize the possessions and jewellery of people seeking #safety, cut off their support and tear apart #families who have built their lives here.
This is performative cruelty reminiscent of #Nazi Germany.
Sign and share this urgent letter to stop the #UK government punishing #innocent families fleeing #war.

Federal #law requires the government to process #asylum seekers who arrive at ports of entry. But in 2018, #Trump’s first admin began a policy known as “metering,” in which border agents simply turned back potential asylum seekers to Mexico before they entered the US.
An immigrant rights group, Al Otro Lado, & several asylum seekers filed a lawsuit in California challenging the policy. An appeals court based in SF sided with the migrants. The Trump admin appealed to #SCOTUS in July.

“Ali is an asylum seeker fleeing the Taliban,” the bishop, Matthew Heyd, said. “His family is settled here, and he’s a student at Bard. These are exactly the kinds of folks we want here.” #Asylum #immigration #Bard resist https://www.nytimes.com/2025/11/16/nyregion/afghan-asylum-immigration-bard-trump.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare

Look, this isn't rocket science: if the government makes it impossible for asylum seekers to work legally, how did they think they were going to work?
As the US discovered during Prohibition, if you make something illegal, it doesn't stop happening, it just gets runs by organised crime.
Legalising work would help asylum seekers, help the economy, increase tax revenue, and cut off a valuable income stream for organised crime gangs.

#Trump admin makes *misleading* case in high-stakes #asylum hearing
#HomelandSecurity asked a judge to #deport a man to #Afghanistan, where he expects the #Taliban to kill him. What happens next could affect thousands.
To make its case, the #DHS did not accuse him of any crime or disloyalty or act of terrorism. Instead, attorneys argued that Afghanistan — a country #US forces rescued him from in 2021 — is safe for his return.
Both institutions, however, have fundamentally transformed since H left them, WaPo has found. The nonprofit’s #US headquarters closed years before the country collapsed, & its former office in #Afghanistan is now under strict #Taliban supervision. The university, meanwhile, no longer provides in-person classes, & its campus was seized by the regime, which installed its own school.

The stakes of the case, which will soon resume in a Virginia courtroom, extend to tens of thousands of #asylum seekers from #Afghanistan whom Trump’s admin may seek to purge. If AG #PamBondi or an #immigration appellate board dominated by #Trump appointees ultimately sides with #DHS, legal experts say the case could set a precedent with sweeping consequences for #Afghans the #US rescued & promised to support.

The man, whom WaPo is identifying as “H” because of concern for his safety, has sought #asylum because he so publicly supported the #UnitedStates’ cause in #Afghanistan. Before fleeing, he worked for a US-based nonprofit & attended an American university in Kabul.
To undermine his claim, government attorneys argued that the #Taliban have allowed those institutions to continue to operate—clear signs, they claimed, that his past would not endanger him if he was deported.
