John, The Trump administration has proposed reducing the annual U.S. refugee admissions number to 15,000—a record low. But as the chart below shows, it is not unexpected. The prospects for refugees hoping to resettle in the United States have dropped every year since 2017.
For more information on the dramatic decline of refugee admissions under the Trump administration, download the American Immigration Council’s fact sheet.
The Council will continue to educate Americans on the refugee admissions program and why it should be strengthened. America was once a beacon of hope for those seeking protection, but that proud tradition has diminished. We must return to an era where we welcome refugees and embrace their energy and potential. Sincerely, |
