Congressional Black Caucus Demands Halt to Deportation of Cameroonian Refugees

HeadlineNov 11, 2020

House Democrats are demanding the Trump administration call off plans to deport dozens of Cameroonian asylum seekers. Some of them are activists who face arrest warrants in Cameroon and political persecution from government forces known for conducting extrajudicial killings. Yesterday, members of the Congressional Black Caucus wrote a letter to the Trump administration stating, “Allowing deportations to continue would support the false depiction by Cameroon that the country poses no risks to deportees and that reports of human rights abuses are overblown.”
