Fund the Fight calling on Congress to welcome refugees and stop presidents from treating people like political pawns by setting the floor at accepting a minimum of 125,000 refugees each year now!
The United States has a long history of leading the world in a humanitarian way. Our history is steeped in stories of refugees who fled to our shores and found not only safe haven but a chance to start a new life. As these refugees became integral parts of our existing communities, they brought with them rich cultures, diverse perspectives, and a strong drive to contribute to the country that welcomed them.
Refugees are more than just numbers and statistics. They are mothers and fathers, sons and daughters. They are engineers, teachers, entrepreneurs, and artists. When we welcome refugees, we welcome individuals who have the potential to make significant contributions to our society. Studies have consistently shown that refugees contribute positively to the U.S. economy, often paying more in taxes than they receive in benefits.
Unfortunately, after attacks from Donald Trump and his corrupt administration, the U.S. significantly reduced the number of refugees it accepts. This is not reflective of the values we uphold as a nation. It’s time for Congress to revisit this policy, and ensure that the U.S. is living up to its role as a global leader in refugee resettlement, regardless of who the president is.
