Haitians didn't choose the current government. Without a mandate @DrArielHenry is almost powerless. We ask @POTUS @SecBlinken @WHAAsstSecty to let a Haitian solution to the crisis emerge. #LetHaitiLive Join the movement: sign.moveon.org/petitions/us…

Two more expulsion flights to Haiti today brings the total to 70 since 9/19. To handle the massive increase, @ICEgov gave a no-bid contract to @GEOGroup worth $15 million. Based on that, it has cost US taxpayers some $12 million to illegally expel 7,000+ asylum seekers to Haiti.

Ariel Henry did not postpone elections in Haiti. Elections were never going to happen this year; that was abundantly clear. What he is doing is pushing for elections (and a constitutional referendum) in early 2022. That's the concern, not the "postponement."

As 7 more expulsion flights are being sent to Haiti today, this makes the 50th flight since 09/19. @POTUS, @VP, @DHSgov, @DHSgov, @SecMayorkas, can stop these flights, rescind Title 42, and restore asylum-seekers rights. #BlackMigrantsMatter #ImmigrationIsABlackIssue

Schools in #Haiti's #earthquake affected zones are supposed to reopen in 10 days, but many of the schools still look like this. Haitians kids lost a huge part of last year to the pandemic, will they just get left behind again? #Haitiearthquake
Pa gen okenn ofisyèl gouvènman ki te vini ni Dikiyon ni yon paket lot kote pou evalye kijan lekòl yo ka relouvri 4 oktòb. Not one government official has passed through Dikiyon nor many other #earthquake affected areas to evaluate how schools will reopen on October 4. #Haiti
