There's a running list of those who died. RIP.
All set to advocate for the rights of high skilled immigrants. Let’s rock and get #EagleAct#HR3648 done. Looking forward to memorable experience. There is no place for country of birth discrimination, that’s it! @immivoice
@SpeakSamuel@USAndIndia Exactly in this boat. Mother has been in ICU since May 18th. Eligible for dropbox but date I got is Oct 2023. Can’t do emergency appt request unless I lie on the website. 12 years in this country and 6 years since I applied for GC. It should not be like this 😔

@RepBera, @CongressmanRaja, @RepJayapal, and I wrote a letter to the school's leaders to voice our deep concerns.
