U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services began accepting applications for a special parole program for Ukrainians fleeing Russia’s war. It’s a similar program to the one rolled out for Afghans, with a few important differences. The program gives eligible Ukrainians fast-tracked entry to the U.S. through humanitarian parole.

It’s the same, temporary status given to some 78,000 Afghans evacuees last year. Tucson City Council member Steve Kozachik has been helping Afghans already here apply for the status for family members still stuck abroad. He says many are getting rejected.

"And that’s troubling to me, we have people who have got applications in and you remember this is not for free, you still have to file a $575 filing fee, non-refundable," he said.

Strange how the Constitution says law concerning immigration are to be UNIFORM.  I don't beleive that means a program for Haitiansm, a different one for Mexicans, another for Canadians, etc.  It seems to mr all these non uniform laws are unconstitutional.
