The Issue

Abdulaziz Tabasi, a dedicated husband and father of four, is currently facing an unimaginable ordeal. For the past 11 months, he has been held in detention by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), separated from his family who desperately need him. Abdulaziz's story is one of strife and endurance, of a man striving to provide a better life for his loved ones.

Before his detention, Abdulaziz was a vital part of his community. He owned and operated a successful business, contributing positively to the local economy and fulfilling his responsibilities as a compliant taxpayer. Every year, he diligently filed his taxes and ensured that his mortgage payments were up-to-date. His hard work and dedication to his family and community are beyond question.

Despite demonstrating commitment to his family and society, Abdulaziz has been refused bond, a decision that has inflicted significant emotional and financial strain on his wife and children. Growing up without a father figure, his two sons and two daughters have been struggling to cope with his absence. His inability to provide for his family has taken a toll on his small business and their overall financial security.

The situation Abdulaziz and his family are facing is increasingly urgent. Statistics show that prolonged detention can lead to severe mental health issues for both the detained individual and their family. According to the National Immigrant Justice Center, prolonged ICE detention is not only detrimental to the individual but also unnecessary and a drain on taxpayer dollars, with costs running into thousands per month.

This petition seeks to reunite Abdulaziz with his family and call upon ICE to reconsider their decision on his bond. By granting him bond, Abdulaziz can continue to contribute productively to society, support his family, and fulfill his financial obligations until a fair and just resolution of his immigration case.

Join us in urging ICE and relevant authorities to reassess Abdulaziz's case with empathy and justice. Every signature brings us a step closer to reuniting a father with his family. Please, sign this petition and help bring Abdulaziz Tabasi back home where he belongs.
