Thanks to the tireless advocacy and commitment to refugees from
advocates like you, President Biden increased the refugee admissions
cap on Monday, raising the ceiling to 62,500 from a historic low of
15,000.  

Thank President Biden for raising the refugee ceiling.
  

Conservative evangelicals, law enforcement leaders, and others were
among the wide spectrum of voices that urged Biden to increase the
refugee ceiling. The decision to raise the ceiling was lauded by
conservative and progressive leaders alike - underscoring the broad
support and deep commitment to refugee resettlement from across the
country.   

Send President Biden a thank-you note for his commitment to rebuilding
our refugee program.   

We Welcome Refugees, a grassroots community of women "committed to
living out Christlike hospitality for all God's children", led
a petition that garnered upwards of 5,000 responses, urging the
administration to raise the historically low cap. Evangelical leaders
 also
urged the president to raise the ceiling, and commended Monday's
announcement. 

Law enforcement leaders also applauded
 the
increase, pointing to the positive impact of refugee resettlement on
local communities.  

Join us in thanking President Biden for honoring his word and raising
the refugee ceiling.   

From refugee advocates to evangelical pastors to police chiefs, there is
overwhelming support for refugees - and a willingness to welcome them
into our local communities. The far-reaching support for the increase
makes it clear that welcoming refugees isn't a Democratic or
Republican issue - it's an American one.  

Thank President Biden for welcoming refugees and raising the refugee
ceiling.   

Thanks for all you do for our immigrant and refugee neighbors,  

Adam Estle 

Vice President of Field and Constituencies, National Immigration Forum
