Congress Must Act: Stop Trump's Illegal Crackdown on Refugees Facing Deportation

Congress must act to stop the Trump administration's illegal crackdown on refugees, a move eerily reminiscent of the 1939 U.S. government's deportation of over 900 Jewish refugees from the MS St. Louis, who were sent back to their fates in Europe. The current policy is discriminatory and sends a chilling message to those seeking asylum. Many lives are at stake if this administration's actions are not challenged. Immediate action must be taken by Congress to protect the rights of refugees.
