======================================

(HAT TIP Whenifhow)

Congress is seeking to fund US Refugee Admissions Program as if Trump didn’t exist.

Pres Trump has all the power on this. Pres Trump needs to read the Refugee Act of 1980.

Trump did not have to include changing the ceiling or language about a moratorium in the Executive Order. He has the power to stay anywhere under the ceiling!

The Refugee Act of 1980 tells the President to set the ceiling in advance of the fiscal year, before October 1, and if he wants to raise the ceiling during the year he must inform Congress, but he does not have to reach the ceiling—few Presidents in recent times have reached the ceiling—or even inform Congress that he will be coming in under it!

Correction: Republicans in Congress are seeking to fund US Refugee Admissions Program as if Trump didn’t exist.

Let's be specific here. The Democrats don't control Congress.
