They kept their promise to us. We won't stop keeping ours.
Congress can restore Afghanistan TPS. We need you in Washington.
The Afghanistan TPS Act (H.R. 9899) is moving toward a discharge petition that would force a House vote. Members sign when their own constituents ask in person. Dates are being finalized, and this will take sustained advocacy, not a single day. Raise your hand now and we will be in touch.
The Unfinished Mission
America built the machinery to keep its promise to Afghan allies, ran it at record scale, then shut it off by policy. The full record from 2009 to 2026, and what must happen now. Free for anyone to read.
What needs to happen now
Two fronts. One promise.
The people who need help are in two places, and the fixes are different for each. This is the shortest honest version of the agenda.
Reopen the door
- Restart visa issuance to Afghan-passport holders and restore the SIV exemption to the travel proclamation
- Restart relocation flights and restore CARE and the Enduring Welcome enterprise
- Allocate roughly 50,000 additional visas, or lift the cap
- Reopen refugee admissions to Afghans, including P1 and P2 referrals
Protect who's here
- Pass the Afghanistan TPS Act for the Afghans already here
- Get USCIS to adjudicate the benefits Afghans have already filed for
- Halt removals to Taliban-controlled Afghanistan while cases are resolved
- Reunite families separated during and after the evacuation
Have an immigration appointment or court date? You shouldn't face it alone.
Afghan allies are being detained at ICE check-ins and immigration hearings with no warning. Battle Buddies are veterans, advocates, and everyday Americans who show up so no ally stands alone. If you, a loved one, or a client has a date coming up, flag it and we’ll work to have someone there.
1,034 allies just got nine more months. The fight isn’t over.
On September 30, the administration extended the camp’s operations for nine months rather than closing it. That keeps 1,034 people, more than 70 percent of them women and children and at least 150 of them relatives of U.S. service members, out of a forced return to Afghanistan. It resettles no one. Only five have been admitted to the United States since October 2025, and processing has largely stalled. Nine months is time to finish the job, not a reason to let up. Figures as of October 3, 2026.
Who we are
We unite disparate groups toward a unified goal: honoring the promise we made to our Afghan wartime allies.
Members of the #AfghanEvac coalition work the full pipeline, from ground-level humanitarian support through relocation and resettlement.
We built and administered the mechanisms for cooperation between U.S. government agencies and the private, mostly volunteer organizations doing this work, and they ran until the current administration stopped engaging. They didn't cancel them or announce anything. They just went silent.
We keep the coalition coordinated, keep legislators and the public informed, and press to get that cooperation restored.

Four years. A promise partly kept.
Between 2021 and 2025, the #AfghanEvac coalition helped move more than 200,000 Afghans toward safety and drove dozens of policy changes across the federal government. That work is documented, and it is not finished.
Set the record straight
Our allies were vetted. Full stop.
Don't believe the disinformation. Afghans relocated through these programs were screened by U.S. and international law enforcement, intelligence, and security agencies before they ever boarded a plane. The vetting is rigorous, layered, and continuous.
- ✓U.S. intelligence and counterterrorism databases
- ✓Biometric and biographic checks, fingerprints and photos
- ✓Department of Defense, State, and Homeland Security review
- ✓International law enforcement and security partners
- ✓Continuous re-vetting throughout the process
