The Trump Administration has paused green card processing for certain individuals, including refugees and asylees, as part of a broader immigration crackdown. This move temporarily halts the path to legal permanent residency for those already granted refuge in the U.S., adding new hurdles for vulnerable communities.
This decision follows previous actions to tighten immigration procedures, including increased vetting of social media accounts. While framed as a national security measure, it raises serious concerns about due process and the future of those seeking safety in our country.
NSLAC remains committed to advocating for immigrants and refugees navigating these unpredictable changes.
