America has left Iraq. Tens of thousands of Iraqis have risked their lives to work alongside our troops over the past seven years. Hundreds, if not thousands, have already been assassinated. Many more have been tortured, kidnapped, and worse, by a terrorist group that has just announced its new strategy to attack these Iraqis upon our withdrawal.
We must not leave them behind.

The List Project to Resettle Iraqi Allies is a non-profit organization, founded in 2007 with the belief that America has a clear and urgent moral and strategic obligation to protect Iraqis who are imperiled due to their affiliation with the United States.
The organization has helped thousands of Iraqis as they try to navigate a complicated refugee resettlement process, through a ground-breaking series of pro bono legal partnerships with three top law firms. Americans wishing to get involved can help newly-resettled Iraqis start out in their new lives through our Netroots program, which has dozens of chapters across the country.
