IN HIS OWN WORDS: ABBY’S STORY My name is Abby (not his real name) I am a citizen of Lebanon and a United States permanent resident. I came to the United States on January 28, 1988 because of an attempt on my life from Hezbollah because I was a member of the militia related to the Israeli forces in South Lebanon and I have not returned to this country since.

A UNITED STATES LAWFUL PERMANENT RESIDENT BEHIND BARS: KEALY'S STORY January 7, 2009 will forever be the day that Kealy (not his real name) was taken from his family. Kealy, a New Yorker and a longtime lawful permanent resident of the United States is one of many, who has fallen victim to the U.S. immigration detention system. He is a loving and dedicated father who has made America his home for twenty-three of his twenty-five years. He knows nothing of his country of origin; it is a land that is foreign to him.
