Afghanistan is not a God forsaken place it has fallen into the hands of God forsaken people.
“Experience Afghanistan” - take a look at last week’s event and many of its 413 participants whom we are so grateful to. #Archewell #Afghanistan #Afghan @royal_suitor @SenBlumenthal #ExperienceAfghanistan @HumanFirstAfg

سوالات زیادی در مورد SIV، P1، P2 و برخی موارد پناهندگی دیگر وجود دارد. همه اینها را نمی توان در پیام های خصوصی من پاسخ بتم، بنابراین فردا شب ساعت 9 شب به وقت افغانستان به طور زنده روی پلت فرم X می آیم تا به همه سؤالات شما پاسخ مناسب بدهم.

Given the current trajectory of Special Immigrant Visas, it is highly unlikely that a significant number will be granted within the next four years. Moreover, if the administration remains Republican following the next presidential election, it is unlikely that the situation will improve even within the next eight years. Consequently, this may mark the end of SIV, P1, P2, family reunification, and support for our Afghan allies.

"India has long been a nation I've admired. With age, I've come to understand India's increasing significance in the ever-changing global power dynamics." said Safi Rauf, Afghan American Humanitarian and Navy reservist.

When I was asked to speak at the Global Business Summit, I didn’t know I will be sharing the stage with Prime Ministers, world leaders, and Mystic visionaries. I am equally excited and terrified. I guess this makes me sort of a world leader as well.
Date: 9-10th February, 2024
Venue: Taj Palace, New Delhi

Here is @josephazam with @saf_rauf @ZabihUllahR and, of course @jonstewart during the @AAAFireWatch last year.
And 1 year later...
We are still asking that the promise made to our #AfghanAllies be kept.
Which starts with passing the #AfghanAdjustmentAct

@saf_rauf at this point had to be ruining on sheer determination. I know it wasnt on sleep. Because there was none to be had.
We were doing everything we could get more #SupportAAA to pass the bill

1 year ago today on @AAAFireWatch
As word began to spread, our numbers quickly started to grow.
What we already knew was becoming apparent.
There was a lot of #supportAAA to be found
The constant in the effort, was my brother @AneesKhalil_HFC
Day and night, he was there.

It's disheartening that we haven't made significant progress in passing the AAA over the past year. It's high time we demonstrate a stronger commitment to our veterans and national security. The AAA is intricately linked to both these crucial issues, and addressing it should be a priority.

Afghan allies have been waiting more than two years for help in getting to the US and staying here. Advocates are fearful that Congress won't act this fall either. Story with @jamesmillianca: militarytimes.com/home/2023/…

The U.S. made a commitment to the brave Afghans who stood shoulder-to-shoulder with American troops throughout 20 years of war. We promised to protect them, just as they did for us.
This amendment ensures the SIV program will continue to be a lifeline to support our allies. The full Senate must approve this legislation to ensure we deliver on our promises and promote our national security interests.

Just gave floor speech to include the bipartisan Afghan Adjustment Act amendment on defense bill. It should be called the COVENANT bill. Keeping our promises to those who stood with us. We have the votes. We need the vote.

1400 #FireWatch update: Unfortunately Congress continued with their own selfish agenda and continued to lie to us throughout this process. Over 78,000 Afghans remain with uncertain future. Efforts by Veterans, everyday Americans, Afghans, Afghan Americans and Allies were ignored.
