When President Trump announced that the U.S. would take 45,000 refugees  for Fiscal Year 2018, it was a lower number than previous years but don’t forget we take another 50,000 in the Diversity Visa Lottery! We have taken more refugees than any other nation in the world…Our congress wants more…We’re not kidding! 100 of them sent a letter to President Trump begging for more…MORE VOTES FOR DEMOCRATS…

To Read the entire letter: CONGRESS WANTS MORE REFUGEES

HERE’S THE PART REQUESTING MORE REFUGEES:

The refugee number is woefully insufficient when compared to the millions of people who have been forced to flee their home countries. Establishing a PD of 45,000 is the lowest refugee admissions goal in our nation’s history. This would prevent tens of thousands of people from enriching American communities while seeking safety, protection, and an opportunity to provide a better future for themselves and their families in the United States.

PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO TELL THESE CONGRESSCRITTERS THAT YOU DON’T WANT MORE REFUGEES:
