Hello, my name is [your name] and I am a voting constituent in Missouri in zip code [your zip]. I'm calling because I am concerned about Armande Rhea Namegni who is currently in detention about an asylum case due to a misattributed shoplifting charge. That charge has since been removed, but she is still in detention. Armande is a pillar of her community, and is exactly the type of person we want in our state. I urge you to pressure the court system to immediately grant her bond so she can resume her life and continue her process of applying for asylum. 

 

Armande's case, and the mishandling of other lawful immigration cases in our state generally, is a central factor in how I am planning to vote in the next election.

Thank you, 

[your name]
