They have been pulled from their flights, left stranded in the
airports. They have been detained without the ability to talk with a
lawyer. And they are wondering if the United States of America is still
the beacon of hope, the lamp by the golden door, the shining city on
the hill. Iraqis who risked their lives to serve our country as translators saw
their visas revoked. An 11-month-old baby was detained. That is
disgusting. It is un-American. It is contrary to everything we stand
for. We stand for providing refuge for those who want to escape their own
awful circumstances and live in freedom and opportunity.
