Less than half of religious refugees can gain U.S. entry, Christian groups report
(Worthy News) – The U.S. is no longer a “safe haven” for people fleeing religious persecution, according to a new report noting massive declines in U.S. arrivals by Christian, Jewish and Muslim refugees, among others.
Rohingya Muslim refugee arrivals declined by 62.6%, Christians by 70% and Yezidis by 100% between fiscal 2016 and fiscal 2022, according to the “Closed Doors” report released Wednesday by the evangelical humanitarian groups World Relief and Open Doors US.
In addition, fewer than half of the 125,000 refugees who could be admitted under a ceiling for U.S. resettlement in 2023 will be admitted, the advocates said. The U.S. is on track to resettle only 60,000 people fleeing religious persecution, they said. [ Source: Washington Times (Read More…) ]
