Today Cambodian families from Oakland and SF will be separated to deportation. ICE and this country have torn their communities apart by war, prisons, and mass deportation. Please support Cambodians by either attending the rally or signing the petition: https://t.co/v55oZPIpEj

Because #UndocuElders with low income face additional challenges due to their legal status when trying to obtain the health care they need and deserve. Here are some data showing that 12% of Californians w/low income are over the age of 65yo.

Maria from @ASPIREJustice asked Khmer elders to draw their superpowers.
These included caring for children, and holding families together despite detention & deportation.
ICE doesn't stand a chance.

Amlorn was granted bond at his hearing this morning and will be released back to his family. Unfortunately, he still faces the threat of deportation.
Call @GavinNewsom and urge him to #PardonRefugees
Massive line of supporters for Amlorn Siratana's bond hearing even though the courtroom is already packed!
I spy folks from @CERIeastbay, @4humanintegrity, @AsianPrisonerSC, @ASPIREJustice and of course @nathanvtan with the photobomb.
#refugeeresistance
@AsianPrisonerSC @womenprisoners @survivepunish@SEARAC@ASPIREJustice@Stand4Danny @CERIeastbay @GavinNewsom Join us TOMORROW 3/29 to call Governor Newsom’s office between 9 am and noon PST urging him to pardon Amlorn Siratana, Hay Hov, Roeun Pich, and Kang Hen. Call scripts and graphics available at https://t.co/QvG98OaffT #PardonRefugees
Roeun Pich, recently detained by ICE, wrote, "I was born in the atrocities of labor camps in Cambodia. Deporting me to a country where I was tormented is inhumane. Oakland, with my family, friends and a career in health care is my home.” @GavinNewsom#PardonRefugees like Roeun
Hay Hov escaped genocide in Cambodia at a young age, and has lived in CA for 30 years. ICE detained Hay this month bc of an old conviction for which he served his time. Hay's son lives with special needs, & depends on both parents. @GavinNewsom#PardonRefugees to bring Hay home
