Call Script

My name is __________. I am a constituent, and my zip code is _______. I am a member of Indivisible SF.

Please use your influence to stand up for the most vulnerable. Go to El Salvador and demand to speak to Andry Hernández Romero, the makeup artist who was wrongly disappeared to CECOT. If the Trump administration can do this to him, they can do it to anyone - including green card holders and citizens.

Help his lawyers bring him back home and give his future back.


Background

Andry Hernández Romero is a gay makeup artist who was applying for asylum in California after fleeing persecution in Venezuela for his sexuality and political views. His attorney says he followed the rules and did everything right. When he arrived, he was detained at the Otay Mesa Detention Center in California. He was scheduled for an asylum hearing on March 13. But when the hearing came, he didn’t appear. He had been disappeared to CECOT without his lawyers knowing. He was wrongly identified as a gang member by a corrupt former cop (now ICE agent) and disappeared to CECOT without any due process. He is not alone. Hundreds of other migrants have been wrongfully sent to CECOT without a hearing.

We need Senator Padilla and Senator Schiff to follow Senator Van Hollen’s actions. Call both of their offices and ask them to show up for California residents and values by going to El Salvador’s CECOT to check on Andry Hernández Romero, who has been wrongfully disappeared to the mega-prison.
