By Rep. Devin Nunes

President Biden's disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan has needlessly imperiled countless American and Afghani lives. The President withdrew American security forces before first extracting American personnel and Afghani allies to whom we granted Special Immigrant Visas (SIVs) to prevent their slaughter by the Taliban. The Biden administration must now do all it can to ensure that those they left to the Taliban's mercy are swiftly extracted from that collapsed nation.

If you or someone you know is an American stranded in Afghanistan or if you are a constituent looking to aid an Afghan SIV applicant stranded in Afghanistan, please call my office at (559) 733-3861, and we will do all we can to help.
