In light of the Dominican Republic’s recent move to FORCIBLY DEPORT Haitians and Dominicans of Haitian descent from the country—after revoking the citizenship rights of Haitian immigrants and children of Haitian immigrants (those born after 1929) without providing a clear and effective path to citizenship—, we are BOYCOTTING ALL DOMINICAN REPUBLIC VACATION PACKAGES AND THE COMPANIES THAT CONTINUE TO OFFER VACATIONS TO THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC.
The UN has noted that FORCED EVICTION of people is a HUMAN RIGHTS VIOLATION (see below) and we feel morally opposed to contributing financial support to a nation that is openly engaged in HUMAN RIGHTS OFFENSES.
This is such a violation of human right by the Dominican Immigration Authority. Let us see what international repercussion will be.
