"They stole the joy of our return to the land and planted death everywhere."

- Um Mohammad, whose 6-year-old daughter Rayan was killed by a landmine on their land in Syria when returning to their homes in December after the fall of the Assad regime.

In the aftermath of war, families displaced by violence long to return home—but for many, the danger is far from over. Landmines and unexploded bombs left behind from conflict turn homes, schools, and farmland into deadly hazards, threatening lives and preventing communities from rebuilding.

The U.S. has long been a global leader in humanitarian demining, working to clear explosives, support survivors, and restore communities. But continued funding and bipartisan support are critical to ensuring these efforts continue.  

Your action will make sure mothers like Um Mohammad can return to their homes after war without fear. Stand with us and call on Congress to allow humanitarian demining to continue saving lives.
