and

@TheJusticeDept

’s Executive Office of Immigration Review to allow asylum seekers to obtain their new hearing date without traveling to protect the health and safety of all people under this inhumane program and surrounding communities.

What’s irresponsible is allowing illegals into our country who might be infected with this and other illnesses. Do your job and protect American citizens
