Halt unjust separation and deportation of vulnerable immigrant family

To: Rep. Horsford, Sen. Rosen, Sen. Cortez Masto

From: A constituent in North Las Vegas, NV

April 12

The Trump administration's inhumane immigration policies have caused immense suffering and trauma for countless families. Soofia, a 19-year-old immigrant, was cruelly separated from her ailing mother and brothers despite being their primary caregiver. She now faces deportation alone, exacerbating existing mental health issues like panic attacks. This senseless cruelty violates the fundamental human rights and dignity of vulnerable people fleeing violence. I implore you to take immediate action to reunite Soofia with her family and halt their unjust deportation proceedings. Soofia's immigration case is strong, and her family's well-being hinges on her care. Forcibly separating them serves no purpose beyond inflicting intentional psychological harm. As public officials, it is your duty to uphold the constitutional rights of all people within our borders, regardless of immigration status. Thousands have voiced outrage over Soofia's case, reflecting the American public's collective opposition to these morally bankrupt policies. This administration's escalating attacks on immigrant families are a stain on our nation's values of compassion and human rights. I urge you to intervene decisively to protect this vulnerable family from further injustice. The cruelties they have endured undermine our laws and the very soul of our democracy. Act now to course-correct and prevent compounding harm enabled by misguided policies rooted in bigotry, not justice.
