Pelosi’s Plan Includes 300 Million Designated for “Migration and Refugee Assistance”

March 24, 2020






Pelosi’s coronavirus rescue plan includes $300 million for “Migration and Refugee assistance” to “remain available until expended, for necessary expenses to prevent, prepare for and respond to coronavirus.”




Many conservative Twitter users were not happy with this designation at all.

Per Breitbart, in comparison, for example, Pelosi’s plan only gives about $100 million in additional funds for runaways and homeless youth in the U.S. and only an extra $15 million to the “Veterans Employment and Training” office to help respond to the health crisis.

Taxpayer money for foreign refugees is also about $100 million more than what Pelosi’s plan specifically designates for the emergency food and shelter program under the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act.
Oppositely, President Trump’s State Department has halted refugee resettlement in the midst of the coronavirus crisis.
