TAKE ACTION: Support the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program!

We are asking you to TAKE ACTION and reach out to your mayor, city council members, state legislators, and governors to show the President that our communities support welcoming refugees. The need for resettlement has never been more urgent. An unprecedented 110 million people are forcibly displaced worldwide, 40 percent of whom are children. Among them, the UN Refugee Agency estimates that 2.4 million refugees need urgent access to resettlement this year. But less than one percent are afforded this chance. It’s time to do more. State and local elected leaders have a powerful role to play urging the President to invest further in the refugee resettlement program.
