Kulyk legally entered the U.S. in late 2023 along with his wife, 38, and daughter, who’s now 5. The family was sponsored by U.S. citizens as part of the Uniting 4 Ukraine program, a humanitarian program set up in April 2022 to allow Ukrainians fleeing Russia’s war to live and work in the U.S. on “parole.”
Once the initial two-year parole period expires, entrants can file for re-parole to remain in the country longer. That’s exactly what Kulyk says he did. His wife and daughter’s applications were approved. But his remained pending.
He said he was putting groceries in his car on Jan. 1 when he was approached by three ICE agents.
“I explained to the ICE officers that the war was killing people, that my wife had a disability, that it was violence, terrorism which we had escaped from but one of them began to laugh,” Kulyk told The Daily Beast. “I asked why he was laughing and I was told that he was pro-Russian, wanted Russia to win the war.”
Important to remember that ICE is and has always been a bipartisan enterprise, and in fact, go look up who first appointed Tom Homan.
Yep it’s been broken for years. As soon as they started enforcing a 100-mile border zone, I knew something was rotten. But what’s been happening lately highlights that immigration needs fixed more than ever. Write or call your congressman tell them we need immigration reform now before more people die or have their lives ruined for no good reason. It seems like congres needs to be told what to do by enough of their voters or they do nothing. The main thing they’re worried about above all else is getting reelected.
Yep…
