The government is revoking passports of trans women fleeing neo-nazi violence while white nationalist networks operate freely across three time zones. That is a national security failure, and you need to say so publicly.
A trans woman of color — a U.S. citizen — had her passport chip remotely invalidated while seeking asylum abroad, with no notice and no legal recourse. She had been stalked, had a needle trap set in her dryer, and received death threats from organized far-right networks spanning the U.S. and Europe. Her full story is documented here: https://theneedlenews.com/2026/08/she-defied-neo-nazi-violence-now-her-u-s-passport-has-been-revoked/. The State Department won't comment. Meanwhile, the administration is pushing legislation letting the Secretary of State revoke any citizen's passport for loosely defined "material support" of a designated group — a standard so vague it has been used to prosecute people for giving advice.
White nationalist networks are the documented, organized threat to American lives. The people they target are not the security risk. Push back on this passport revocation legislation and demand the State Department answer for what it is doing to trans people and political dissidents.
