The Sacramento region is bucking President Donald Trump’s moves to cut back the flow of international refugees entering the United States.
The region is experiencing a mini-boom of refugees resettling here, even as the number of refugees admitted into the U.S. overall plummets, according to a Sacramento Bee analysis of data kept by the national Refugee Processing Center.
A total of 466 refugees from around the globe have resettled in the Sacramento metropolitan area so far this year, a 20 percent increase over the same period last year. The number to date is also bigger than in any year under former President Barack Obama.
Nationwide, the number of refugees flowing into the United States is down 21 percent so far this year. The number of those who have resettled in California – 1,938 – is nearly identical to the 2016 figure.
Many refugees fleeing war-torn Syria are resettling in the Sacramento region. So far this year, 58 Syrians have settled in the region, more than double the number who came here in 2016. The number of Syrians granted refuge both in California and nationwide is also on the rise.
A total of 43 Iraqi refugees, 37 Iranians and 25 Afghans have also settled in the Sacramento region this year.

Make no mistake the rats see every illegal person as a vote.... at this rate we will see in the future the demonicRATS rule this country for a long long time! I’m starting to believe Trump will not have a second term...GOD’s mercy only granted the US only four years .. The powers that may are just too freaking titanical strong! One man cannot possibly defeat the evil vicious powers of the entire world when they’re aimed straight against you! I don’t know what Trump needs to do to fend off these bastards and the majority of RINOS joining forces with the DemonicRATS who are hiding behind closed doors scheming out a plan to impeach our President...Madness! Seems the only thing to do is pray for him and shed many tears over the state of our nation!A few weeks ago I mailed a encouraging card to our president I hope he gets it!
Embrace Your Diversity!
