@JeffMerkley Our passports don’t define our worth. We are Iranian students admitted to top US universities, many waiting over a year for visas. The travel ban now threatens to take away the futures we have worked tirelessly to build. This is unjust. Please support us. #EducationWithoutBorders
@GovBobFerguson Our passports don’t define our worth. We are here to learn, contribute, and build bridges — not barriers. It’s unfair to punish students and researchers for where they come from. #EducationWithoutBorders
"Because you stood up, I can be here."
A young girl wrote me that after we defeated the Trump administration's 2017 travel ban. My daughter helped me write a reply. They later met and created a connection.
Two 8-year-old kids can understand things in a way our president cannot.
Trump’s Travel Ban 2.0 is discriminatory and xenophobic, plain and simple.
He’s targeting immigrants from Black and Brown countries while welcoming in White South Africans.
We’re fighting back with our No Ban Act.

Proud to join community members today to speak out against President Trump’s latest travel ban.
Washington was the first state to challenge the initial travel ban in 2017 — and we won.
While it is difficult to believe we are back here again, Washington will lead on this issue as we did before.
We have a president who does not understand some basic things about what our country stands for, and what we believe in.
Washington will uphold our values in the face of the chaos from the Trump administration.
@SenLBR We are not a threat. We are Iranian scholars and researchers, we worked so hard to receive admissions. It’s unfair to deprive us from our right because of our nationality! #EducationWithoutBorders
