Extend Afghan Special Immigrant Visa program
The Issue
The US and NATO led invasion of Afghanistan has been a great achievement for the whole region. People of Afghanistan are grateful to the services and sacrifices of US government and NATO coalition partners making Afghanistan a country hopeful for a secure and better future. In fact, these achievements were obtained with the sincere and dedicated services of Afghan Interpreters and Translators on duty/off duty. It took these interpreters and translators alot of courage and huge risk to stand side by side with their US allies in the war-zone. Unfortunately these interpreters and translators have been a constant target for terrorist groups like Haqqani Network, Taliban, ISIS and Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan. Now that NDAA is due to be passed by the U.S Congress, your afghan allies are in great death risk and U.S needs to help their afghan allies and bring them to USA for a safe and secure future so that no afghan ally is left behind as promised by the U.S in the past. Kindly take this as a serious issue as considered in the past and authorize additional numbers of visas for SIV program. We need your immediate assistance in speedy processing of all the pending SIV cases in Kabul, Afghanistan. Thousands of afghan allies have been facing death risk in Afghanistan. We served U.S with honesty and dignity, now its time for U.S Senate and U.S Congress to take necessary steps in authorizing additional visas and extension of SIV program.
