Sixty-six progressive Democrats are telling President Joe Biden to open the nation's border to Afghan migrants because the U.S. bears moral responsibility for the wars in Afghanistan.
"After decades of disastrous U.S. intervention, one thing is clear: We have a moral responsibility to provide safe harbor and refuge for the Afghan people," the August 26 letter, which does not set an upper limit on the inflow of Afghan migrants, states.
"The U.S. war in Afghanistan has caused irreparable harm to Afghans," the letter claims, without mentioning the many hard-fought humanitarian gains Americans delivered or mentioning the almost 2,400 dead Americans - in the two decades since 2001.

A 19-year-old Afghan student studying in Canada, Aina is particularly worried about her mother, a women's rights activist who has worked with an American nongovernmental organization teaching Afghan women literacy.
