Freedom of Speech is being threatened!!

To: Sen. Kaine, Rep. Beyer, Sen. Warner

From: A constituent in Arlington, VA

March 12

Please do everything in your power to secure the release from ICE custody of U.S. permanent resident and student activist Mahmoud Khalil. Mahmoud is a student activist for Palestinian rights at Columbia University, and was abducted from his New York apartment on March 8 by DHS agents in retaliation for his political speech on Palestinian rights. Khalil is currently being held in ICE custody and has reportedly already been moved out of New York State. His wife, a U.S. citizen, is eight months pregnant. The Trump administration is making moves from a well-worn fascist playbook and we need our members of Congress to start fighting back. They are trying to remove a legal permanent resident for his political speech in support of human rights and justice. Everyone in Congress needs to immediately and publicly condemn this action, call for Mahmoud's release, and do everything in their power to protect student activists and immigrants from the reach of the Trump administration. This is an outrage and Americans won’t stand for it. Thanks.
