Trump is on target to beat Obama numbers in two of O’s fiscal years!
There are some fascinating statistics at the Refugee Processing Center for those of you interested in getting the facts.
Below is a screenshot graph at Wrapsnet showing this year and ten previous fiscal years. It doesn’t yet include the month of April, but checking that number separately I found we admitted 3,316 in April. So add that to the 39,098 on the chart (for the end of March) we see that we are now up to 42,414. That is the highest number for this time in the fiscal year (FY17 ends on September 30th) than in any of the previous ten fiscal years.
