Once again, the US has leverage to stop these atrocities that we are not using. Individual sanctions aren't enough. Congress must act & pass my & @sarajacobs.house.gov bill to halt arms sales to the UAE until they stop arming the genocidal RSF. We are not powerless to help end this.

Trump lied when he said he'd target “the worst of the worst.” TPS protects those who would otherwise be in grave danger. They are legally residing here & contribute to our economy & communities. Glad judges have halted Trump’s reckless termination of TPS for Haiti & Ethiopia.
