Friends, urgent news:
After making campaign promises to raise Trump’s historically low refugee cap, the Biden administration announced its plans to keep the annual cap for refugee admissions at Trump’s record low of 15,000.
This is unacceptable.
Not only is this cruel and xenophobic, but it comes in stark contrast to Biden’s promises on the campaign trail to raise the refugee admissions cap to a record high of 62,000 and restore our nation’s commitment to leading the way on refugee resettlement.
Shortly after announcing these plans, the Biden administration reversed course and now says they will raise refugee admissions. They must keep their promise, and raise the refugee numbers instead of continuing to advance policies that hurt Black and brown immigrants. The choices here are clear: continue Trump’s legacy of white nationalist policies or choose to boldly set our country on a transformative new path forward. We’re counting on you to help us by making your voices heard.
We’re calling on Biden to raise the cap and hold true to his promise to end the assault on immigrants carried over from the previous administration. Will you rush a donation of whatever you can afford to fuel our efforts to pressure the administration toward meeting our demands and holding true to their word?
