For 115 years, USCRI has stood alongside refugees, immigrants, and displaced people through moments of crisis and moments of rebuilding. That commitment has never changed.

To everyone who continues to welcome newcomers, advocate for protection, and remind the world that displaced people are not forgotten, thank you.

Refugees are still here, and so are we.

Today, the White House announced an FY2026 refugee admissions goal of only 7,500—the lowest since the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program began.

USCRI is deeply disappointed. At a time when over 123 million people are forcibly displaced worldwide, this decision undermines decades of bipartisan support for U.S. refugee resettlement and disregards global calls for increased protection and compassion.

“We urge the Administration to maintain and strengthen its historic leadership,” said Eskinder Negash, USCRI President & CEO, “by supporting refugees who have safely resettled in American communities and the thousands more who have already been conditionally approved for resettlement and are waiting overseas to be processed.”

USCRI will continue to advocate for displaced populations around the world who urgently need safety and protection. Read the full statement at https://bit.ly/4qziUOC

Starting November 1, 2025, new federal rules will strip refugees, asylees, survivors of human trafficking, and other noncitizens of access to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)—the program that helps over 40 million Americans put food on the table.

This change, part of H.R. 1 (“One Big Beautiful Bill Act”), means that families who came to the U.S. for safety will soon be left without food assistance. Refugee parents will struggle to feed their children. Asylees will face impossible choices between food and family reunification. Survivors of trafficking and violence will lose critical support while rebuilding their lives.

SNAP is more than food — it’s dignity, stability, and economic strength for local communities. Every $1 in SNAP benefits generates about $1.50 in local economic activity. Cutting off access hurts us all.

Here’s what you can do:
🍎 Donate or volunteer with your local food bank.
🤝 Volunteer with your local refugee office.
📞 Call your local, state, and federal representatives — tell them to protect access to food for all.
💙 Support USCRI as we help refugees and immigrants bridge the gap and advocate for change.

The U.S. has terminated Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Haiti, effective Sept. 2, 2025—putting over 500,000 Haitian immigrants at risk of deportation to a country in crisis.

Haiti is facing armed conflict, mass displacement, and “catastrophic” hunger. Over 1 million people—over half of them children—are internally displaced. Yet the U.S. says it's safe to return.

USCRI calls on the Administration to reverse this harmful decision. Lives depend on it.

Today, the Administration announced a travel ban targeting citizens from 19 countries, including Afghanistan and Sudan. Travelers from Afghanistan, Myanmar, Chad, the Republic of the Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Haiti, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, and Yemen face a full ban. Citizens of Burundi, Cuba, Laos, Sierra Leone, Togo, Turkmenistan, and Venezuela face partial visa suspensions.

Many of the countries on the list are experiencing active conflict, humanitarian crises, or widespread persecution. This policy would shut down critical legal pathways to the U.S., leaving refugees and displaced people with even fewer options for protection.

USCRI is concerned that this decision will separate families and stands with victims of persecution and conflict affected by this announcement.

“Today’s decision endangers the lives of those seeking safety in the United States,” said USCRI President and CEO Eskinder Negash.

On March 25, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced the revocation of humanitarian parole protections for individuals covered under the Cuban, Haitian, Nicaraguan, and Venezuelan (CHNV) parole program.

Humanitarian parole allows individuals outside the U.S. to enter temporarily due to urgent humanitarian needs. This decision leaves over 530,000 CHNV parolees without their legal status and facing deportation starting April 24.

"The mass revocation of parole status through the Federal Register notice creates unnecessary chaos and uncertainty for people who were granted humanitarian protection in the United States," says USCRI President & CEO Eskinder Negash.

This week marks the 45th anniversary of the Refugee Act of 1980—a bipartisan effort to address the needs of victims fleeing persecution. Since its passage, over 3 million refugees have resettled in the U.S., including more than 400,000 welcomed by USCRI.

“Beside the law, resettling refugees is our moral duty… It is a duty owed not only to the stranger in need, but a duty we owe to ourselves, for the sake of our own humanity.” – USCRI President & CEO Eskinder Negash

On this anniversary, USCRI urges Congress to once again protect the uprooted victims of persecution.

There are more than 43 million refugees worldwide, and the need for action has never been more urgent. Refugees have fled war, ethnic cleansing, and unimaginable suffering, holding on to the hope that countries like the United States will offer safety and an opportunity for a second chance at life.

Yet recent executive actions have indefinitely suspended the U.S. Refugee Admission Program (USRAP), dismantling a program that has been in place for nearly 45 years. This sudden renunciation of responsibility jeopardizes the lives of countless refugees.

We can’t allow this to continue. Here’s how you can help:
1️⃣ Contact your members of Congress and urge them to support the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program and the Lady Liberty Act.
2️⃣ Share the stories of refugees—real people whose lives are threatened—and the impact these programs have on their futures.
3️⃣ Donate today at refugees.org/donate
