Uphold human dignity, allow fair asylum evaluations

The dignity of every human being, regardless of immigration status, must be upheld. Mass deportations without due process are inhumane and unjust. I urge you to reconsider policies that instill fear in immigrant communities and allow asylum seekers fleeing persecution to have their cases properly heard and evaluated through fair legal proceedings. Showing mercy and compassion to the vulnerable upholds our highest values as a nation. There are practical solutions that can secure our borders while still treating all people with respect and affording them basic rights under the law.
