As a person of faith, I urge Senators Sinema and McSally to stop funding the administration's inhumane and cruel policies that are dismantling the asylum system, and instead restore and strengthen it by co-sponsoring the Refugee Protection Act (H.R.5210 / S.2936) and the Asylum Seeker Protection Act (H.R.2662). I am outraged by the administration's Migration Protection Protocol and the Asylum Cooperative Agreements, forcibly returning people to so-called "safe third countries" where they continue to face harm, as well as the PACR & HARP tent courts that violate due process. My community welcomes asylum seekers and immigrants, and I urge my nation to do the same.
