Defend free speech, release Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil

To: Sen. Ossoff, Pres. Trump, Rep. Williams, Sen. Warnock

From: A verified voter in Atlanta, GA

March 10

The detainment of Mahmoud Khalil, a Palestinian activist and Columbia University graduate, by ICE is a concerning violation of his constitutional rights to free speech and assembly. As a lawful permanent resident, Khalil should not face deportation solely for his political views and activism related to pro-Palestinian causes. This arrest appears to be part of a broader crackdown on student protesters critical of US policy, which threatens free expression on college campuses across the country. I urge you to speak out against this unjustified detainment, call for Khalil's immediate release, and defend the First Amendment rights of all Americans to voice dissent without fear of retaliation. Deporting individuals based on their political beliefs is a dangerous attack on civil liberties that must be forcefully opposed.
