When Mohammad first won the Diversity Visa lottery in June 2020, he couldn't believe it.
Nearly 3 years later, he and his family remain in limbo, waiting to obtain their visas as promised.

We are tired, we are getting old and the dream has not yet come true. How time we should waiting again?
Dear @POTUS You are the most powerful president in the world
@TravelGov do something please!
Each year, 11 million people apply for the Diversity Immigrant Visa Program. Applicants have a 1% chance of winning.
Now, tens of thousands of people are unsure of their status in the lottery process because of policy changes in the last 3 years.

We will continue to fight for the rights of #DV2017 ~ #DV2021 winners 🇺🇸
This struggle will continue until all the lost visas are given to their holders.
WE WILL NEVER GIVE UP 👊
NEVER!

@camiloreports Hey Camilo. Sponsorship program is a wise acknowledgement that legal paths deter unlawful ones. Yet @SecBlinken still throttles family-based immigration by prioritizing students/tourists, & he still fights 20k+ Diversity Visa immigrants with appeals. Why Blinken not on board?
We need diversity in all visas ?
They issued 7-8% it is much more then expected?
.@TravelGov you should issue equal percentage of visas in each categories? We should limit per category to 1-2% instead 7% as there are so many categories of visas which also need equal percentage?
As @TravelGov focuses on tourists and students, immigrants become a smaller percentage of visas issued. Make no mistake: throttling legal immigration increases the number of people showing up at our border.

Only 3 months remain until the end of the fiscal year for #DV2022 winners.
Then these unused visas will be discarded.
This ends the dreams of many people who continued their dream of entering the 🇺🇸 legally
Please keep our chances, you can schedule it all!

Diversity lottery winners from previous years 2017 - 2021 who were affected with trump administration proclamations believe you REALLY want to fix legal immigration backlogs.
Kindly include us in the upcoming immigration bipartisan bill and save our dreams 🇺🇸
The #Biden State Department explains why it wants to trash green cards authorized by Congress that it was supposed to issue and then illegally chose not to issue.

The diversity visa is one of the biggest contributors to America's 🇺🇲 multinational nature.
This multinationality that has formed America 🇺🇲 for centuries will remain even stronger with the diversity visa.
Do not prevent this!
