John,
This year, you helped us make America a more welcoming place for
refugees.
When President Biden took office in January, immigration advocates
across the country expected him to immediately take action to rebuild
our refugee resettlement system-starting with increasing the refugee
ceiling from its historic low of 15,000.
But when it became clear the administration was going to drag their feet
on this, we got to work.
We brought together **faith leaders**
and **national security experts**
to call on President Biden
to raise the refugee ceiling. We amplified those voices **calling for
change**
.
We used social media, email and more to help over 500 people from across
the political spectrum call on President Biden to keep his promise.
Shortly thereafter, **he did**
by raising the ceiling to 62,500.
And we couldn't have done it without your help.
**Help us reach our end-of-year fundraising goal of $50,000 and receive

**free**Â sticker.**
We've shown that change is possible when we come together and demand
it. In 2022, we're continuing the fight to make our country a more
welcoming place for immigrants and refugees-but it won't be possible
without your support.
Refugee resettlement still faces an **uphill battle**
in the year ahead. Now as much as ever, it's critical that we keep the
pressure on our elected officials to make America a country of welcome.
Your support could help us expand our efforts and reach more advocates
as we continue to stand up for the value of immigrants and refugees to
our nation.
**Donate today to help support our work.**
Thank you,
Ali Noorani
President & CEO
