Huffpost Writer Decries Trump Dismantling Permissive Asylum Policy
By Jack Martin   November 26, 2019 No Comments


A November 24 article in the Huffington Post cited retired or dismissed former government employees and advocates for the “troubled masses yearning to breathe free” describing how the Trump administration is in the process of tightening the admission policy for refugees, asylum applicants, and temporary workers.

The writer, Rachel Morris, identifies a series of policy changes that have the effect of slowing the issuance of visas and screening out refugee and asylum applicants. The article, which identifies FAIR as an advocate of some of these changes, notes that the cumulative effect of the changes will be difficult to reverse even if the Democrats win the presidency in 2020.

1. Don't like it when immigration laws are enforced? Go through Congress to change the laws.

2. "Refugee" and "Asylum" do not include "My country's economy and law enforcement suck".
