Tell U.S. policymakers: Assist Afghan people seeking safety

The rapid rise of the Taliban and the destabilization of the country is a tragic and predictable outcome of decades of U.S.-led war and military occupation. Today the U.S. government has a responsibility to assist Afghans wishing to leave the country, and to provide them asylum in the United States.
