Mr. @SecMullinDHS, as you step into your new position I ask you to provide particular consideration to the status of Iranian students and professionals in the United States who may be at risk of immigration complications due to Presidential Proclamations 10949 and 10998. Many of these individuals fled the Islamic Republic’s because they believe in freedom, democracy, and the values this country stands for. They are also contributing to the United States every day.
They arrived in this country legally, followed the rules, respect this country and its system of law and order and are among the most dedicated and accomplished contributors to American society. I ask that you and your department consider these factors, plus the personal and political risk many of these young people would face if sent back to the criminal regime in Iran.
America’s concerns for its national security and the threat posed by the Islamic regime to the homeland are entirely justified. To that end, my office stands ready to provide you and your colleagues with regime operatives, propaganda agents, and influence networks for investigation and removal from the United States.
Thank you for your consideration.
When I talk to my family, it feels like I’m speaking to prisoners; limited visiting hours, censored conversations, their lack of awareness about the outside world, fake smiles saying “we’re fine.”
The voices of people are being silenced!

با خونوادهم که حرف میزنم انگار با زندانی دارم حرف میزنم، ساعت ملاقات محدود، حرفهای سانسور شده، بیخبریشون از دنیا و لبخندهای زورکی و فیک که ما خوبیم.
از قطعی اینترنت بگید بچهها، صدای این مردم داره سانسور میشه و جونشون در خطره.
#DigitalBlackOutIran
The internet in Iran has been weaponized into a wall of silence.
@elonmusk, your technology was built to break these barriers. Help us bypass the blackout and give the Iranian people their voices back.
Time is running out. #DigitalBlackoutIran
Dear @elonmusk, Mr. President @POTUS
The people of Iran are completely cut off from the internet in the middle of a war. They need access to evacuation alerts and uncensored information.

Dear Elon,
In these critical days, the people of Iran need internet access. Please help them stay connected as they struggle to reclaim their country from the rule of the mullahs. Stand with the Iranian people. Iran will not forget its friends.
