MA Senator Scott Brown
2400 JFK Federal Building
Boston, MA 02203
P: 17-565-3170

"I am calling to leave a message of support for almost 50 Cambodian Refugees who are going to be deported any day now. I am especially asking to stop the deportations of Massachusetts residents: Tim Kakk of Lowell, Thu Ngin of Lowell, and Nge Buth of Lynn. I ask that Senator Scott Brown please step in to stop these 3 Massachusetts residents from deportations. They all have US citizen children, US citizen spouses and significant others, and US Citizen family members. They are the main income earners for their families and have proven to be assets to their communities. They arrived as refugees from the Khmer Rouge Genocide before the age of 10. We need to keep families united. I ask that Senator Scott Brown advocate for deferment of their deportations and for their civil and human right to due process.

Thank you."
