USCRI Who? This Refugee Resettlement Agency is Laying Low, and Doing Well
02/09/2020 ~ Ann Corcoran   

I’ve been noticing the absence of the US Committee for Refugees and Immigrants (USCRI), one of the top nine federal contractors***, in all the anti-Trump media hubbub and wondered if they were shrinking financially and therefore laying low to stay out of Trump’s line of sight.

So I checked today, and guess what?

USCRI is approximately 96% federally funded, and…..
They are doing financially better under the Trump Administration than they ever did in the Obama years.

But, before I give you the data, let me tell you how much controversy they stirred over the years.

They provide a service and are paid for it. Big whoop! Don't like it, change the law so that the US turns away all refugees.
