**Still Needed: Afghan Adjustment Act**
**Â **
**WASHINGTON, D.C.**- Earlier this month the Department of Homeland
Security officially announced
<[link removed]>
that Afghan evacuees who arrived in the country under Operation Allies
Welcome <[link removed]> will be able to renew their
humanitarian parole status. The following is a quote from
**Jennie Murray, President and CEO of the National Immigration
Forum**:Â
"The re-parole process alleviates part of the uncertainty for Afghan
evacuees. But it extends a short-term solution that does not provide
stability, further bolster our security or advance full integration.Â
"Congress must provide Afghans allies a legal pathway to permanency so
they can truly rebuild their lives in the United States. Our country
owes them protection, stability and integration. The Afghan Adjustment
Act would honor our promise.Â
"American communities keep showing a strong desire to welcome Afghan
evacuees. As newcomers in our communities, they deserve to live with
certainty that the U.S. is their permanent home."Â Â
