National-Security Cases Tied to Immigration Loopholes
FBI & White House Sought Cases
... while American Forced into Hiding
Elena's whistleblowing led to federal indictments, government investigations, congressional hearings in 2011 and 2017, and media coverage. She was the lead witness at U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee hearings in 2017.
The FBI, White House and congressional investigators sought national-security cases she uncovered tied to immigration loopholes. These loopholes allow foreigners to bypass background checks, hide national-security threats, waive criminal activities, and get fast-tracked citizenship. (As of January 22, 2021, pending immigration reform legislation seeks to broaden these loopholes.)
Elena has a simple ethos when lobbying lawmakers for change: Focus on policy over partisanship.
America's political, economic, racial and ethnic diversity is represented within the group of immigration fraud victims lobbying for change.
Lopez testified before the U.S. Senate in 2017. She was almost killed by her Dutch husband after she brought him to the United States. He admitted marrying her for a green card, then terrorized her to keep her quiet. She soon found out she sponsored a violent criminal into the country. The Department of Homeland Security warned he was "dangerous," but refused to enforce his fraudulent immigration status despite his extensive criminal activities.
With a background in textile science and research, Elena made and donated hundreds of medical-grade masks during this pandemic. She wrote The Down & Dirty Guide to Safe "Masking" based on her expertise and the work of countless textile engineers, doctors, medical researchers and public health professionals.
