Where did the FY2017 refugees go so far; 34,825 as of this morning

For new readers (and there are many of you!), refugees are admitted on a fiscal year basis. In September of each year, the President sends a determination letter (and report) to Congress and tells Congress how many refugees are proposed for the upcoming fiscal year that begins on October 1 and from which regions of the world they will be taken. Congress’ role is to “consult” only.


Here is Obama’s last determination.


President Trump has already lowered Obama’s ceiling from 110,000 to 50,000. We argue that Trump could go lower still and avoid the Constitutional challenges being raised right now, see here, by lowering the ceiling across the board, across all ethnic groups.

Here at Wrapsnet this morning we see where the 34,825 have been placed in the last 4 and 1/2 months (the US State Department added 395 since yesterday):

Alaska got 32 and Hawaii 3. Texas did not save itself by withdrawing from the program, the Governor must sue as Tennessee is doing!

Here are the top ten receiving states (turning red states blue!):

Trump needs to cap it at 35,000...now!

No more for the rest of the Fiscal Year...from anywhere!

He has to rewrite that executive order and make it airtight to stop the US from taking in anymore refugees and issue the travel ban again. How many terrorists have flocked in since the ban was lifted? I am sure quite a lot. We do not want or need any of these refugees.

Yes, he must withdraw the E O, cancel it, and start over. Just stop issuing new entry documents without extreme vetting or altogether until you're sure it's safe to do so.

Absolutely stop all new refugees. Stop it now at whatever number you've already let in.
