Pass the Afghan Adjustment Act yes on HB4895

To: Rep. Simon, Sen. Padilla, Sen. Schiff

From: A verified voter in Oakland, CA

August 17

**Pass the Afghan Adjustment Act — Honor Our Commitment to Afghan Allies** Vote yes on HB4895, the Afghan Adjustment Act. Tens of thousands of Afghans who risked their lives working alongside U.S. forces were evacuated here in 2021 and have been stuck in legal limbo ever since. That's not how you treat people who kept our soldiers alive. This bill gives them a clear path to permanent status, extends the Special Immigrant Visa program through 2029, and creates formal pathways for allies still stranded outside the country. This is a matter of basic credibility. When the U.S. asks someone to serve as an interpreter, a guide, or an embassy employee in a war zone, that's a promise — and promises don't expire because the withdrawal got messy. Passing HB4895 is the minimum we owe these people. Leaving them in legal uncertainty while they wait for Congress to act is a betrayal, plain and simple. Vote yes.
