Last week, Donald Trump expanded his Muslim ban, the latest racist assault on immigrants like me.
I’m fighting back.
My family came to America from India when I was 11. Like millions before us, we worked hard for the American dream: my brother joined the Navy, and I became a neuroscientist.
But when Donald Trump was elected, my son asked me, “Mom, are they going to send you back?”
I’m an American, my sons are American, and I’m running for Congress because Donald Trump and his white nationalist administration will never take that away from us.
Fight back against Donald Trump’s xenophobic assault. Chip in to my campaign for Congress today.
Top Trump ally Rep. Steve King explains why they fight to restrict immigration: "You cannot rebuild your civilization with somebody else's babies."
Trump tore children from their parents and wants to end family reunification visas. I fight back, because children shouldn’t be in cages and families should be together.
Trump detained and interrogated US citizens of Iranian descent at the border. I fight back, because US citizens are US citizens, no matter the color of their skin.
Trump slashed refugee admissions to record low levels. I fight back, because the US should be a beacon of hope for those fleeing genocide and war.
Together, we will take our country back. Will you join me?
Fight back against Donald Trump’s racist agenda. Donate $3, $20, or $50 to my campaign for Congress today.
Thanks for fighting back.
