The Trump administration is considering further cuts to the annual cap on refugees as it diverts caseworkers to handle asylum claims from Central American families at the southern U.S. border, a senior official said on Friday...
...U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has already shifted refugee caseworkers to instead work on asylum cases, the official said - and will continue to shift more - reducing the number of refugee files that can be handled no matter where the cap is set. The official did not provide details on how many case officers had been reassigned...
...The New York Times reported on Friday that top officials would consider options at a meeting on Tuesday - which could include effectively ending the program, or severely slashing the cap and reserving the spots for a narrow group of countries.

We need a freeze on ALL immigration until further notice.
We can allow some limited immigration a few decades from now perhaps.
End all immigration. If the DACA gang winds up staying, then stop all immigration at least until enough have been stopped to make up for the DACA people.
How about zero?
We‘re full.
No more for 50 years AND deport the illegals AND send back all the Central Americans at the border.
Should be: CAP == 1 allowed in for 10,000 kicked out...
Should get things back to normal in 10-years (Although even that is too late to save the Nation’s complete transition to an EU wannabee...)
Whoops! That adjustment was to be “per hour”...
Almost 30,000 vulnerable refugees overseas have already completed interviews for resettlement, said the International Rescue Committee, a humanitarian aid group.
“Pulling the rug out from under refugees and the resettlement program, as is reported, is unfair, inhumane, and strategically flawed for the United States,” said Nazanin Ash, a vice president with the group.
Lets do what the President said, during the campaign. Set up facilities in neighboring countries, so when their country is stabilized they can move right back home. I’d rather a few tax dollars go to that, by buying a 100lb bag of rice for $2, than have them move to the us, pop out one citizen w/in a year of being in the US and never having to leave.
End all non-European immigration.
America’s population could use some bleaching.
Good plan. As long as there is an illegal immigration crisis at our southern border, ALL immigration resources should be focused on stopping that crisis. Until that is resolved, there should be NO legal immigration allowed. The freeze should continue until there is absolutely no chance that illegal immigration will ever resume.
How about zero?
