Hear the Cries of the Haitian People
Tell President Biden, Vice President Harris and Secretary of State Blinken to stop deporting Haitians and start supporting democracy and human rights in Haiti.
The Haitian people are facing one of their greatest political crises in decades. After dissolving the nation's parliament one year ago, Haiti's President Jovenel Moïse has ruled by decree, leading to a spiral of corruption, human rights abuses, violence, and kidnapping. Now he has chosen to remain in office after the end of his constitutional term, and further delay elections until he writes a new constitution for the country. The Haitian Catholic Bishops, Federation of Protestant Churches, Bar Association, and leading civil society and labor organizations have all opposed these measures and urged a return to democracy and human rights.
Yet the U.S. has continued to operate deportation flights to Haiti and expel Haitians who are seeking asylum in the U.S. And the U.S. State Department has expressed support for the Haitian President. Leading Members of Congress with a long history of working for democracy and human rights in Haiti have called on Secretary of State Blinken to reverse course and condemn the anti-democratic actions and abuses in Haiti. Please add your own voice to the call for the U.S. government to end deportation flights to Haiti, allow Haitians now in Mexico to apply for asylum, and stand with civic and faith-based organizations working for democracy and human rights in Haiti.
