With all of these shut down, the only SIVs who can navigate this system are the wealthiest and best-connected—those who can afford to fund their own resettlement or happen to be connected to a nonprofit with funding to support.

For everyone else? We’re dangling the promise of America in front of them—only to rip it away when they arrive. Our allies risked everything for us. They deserve better than this.

SO if anyone is telling you that SIVs are “fine” that’s inaccurate. They can technically still move but these EOs have decimated the staffing and systems that support that movement so relocation operations have ground to a halt. But Secretary Marco Rubio can fix it with a phone call.

The pause on the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program (USRAP) isn’t just a bureaucratic delay—it’s a death sentence for Afghan women and girls. Most female principal applicants are in the refugee track, which means they are disproportionately impacted. 🧵

Standing in solidarity with Ekrem İmamoğlu, İsmail Saymaz, Mahir Polat and others who are illegally detained. Standing in solidarity with all citizens in #Turkey who are denied their democratic rights. Arresting your political opponents is a sign of weakness, not strength.

Persbericht: het Europese Hof van Justitie oordeelde vandaag dat Nederland onterecht de beslistermijnen in asielzaken heeft verlengd van zes naar vijftien maanden. De uitspraak bevestigt dat veel asielzoekers onterecht maanden – soms zelfs jaren – in onzekerheid zitten. Lees hier

#Afghanistan 🧵 wij blijven de strijd vd Afghaanse bewakers ondersteunen. Ook bij de (pro bono) rechtzaak vd #ambassadebewakers tegen de Staat. Uit onderzoek blijkt nl dat de overheid wel degelijk verantwoordelijkheid is voor hun veiligheid, hoewel die altijd ontkent werd. 1/3

Anne-Marie Snels (@annemariesnels) 's Twitter Profile Photo

Ook lopen de bewakers aantoonbaar gevaar, er zijn mensen o.a. opgepakt, vastgezet, mishandeld, bedreigd wat ook ontkent werd door de overheid. En er is veelvuldig gesproken over evacuatie. De overheid heeft de Tweede Kamer dus fout geïnformeerd 2/3

Anne-Marie Snels (@annemariesnels) 's Twitter Profile Photo

Op basis van die foute informatie is wel t besluit genomen dat ambassadebewakers niet naar Nederland mochten komen. Terecht stappen de ambassadebewakers dus naar de rechter. Dit alles vraagt opnieuw om stevige discussie in de Tweede Kamer! Kati Piri Jan Paternotte Tweede Kamer
