The Trump administration has slashed refugee resettlement, reorienting the program in line with the desires expressed by the American people last November, a top State Department spokesperson told Breitbart News.
Trump’s moves deliver on a key campaign promise after the Biden administration abused the program to facilitate mass migration into the United States and radically transform American communities.
Under President Trump, just 7,500 refugees, will be admitted into the United States in fiscal year 2026.

This is refugee status, they golden ring of migrant giveaways. Asylum is the next step down and is not as lucrative.
Now go get the ones Biden let in and deport them.
The State Dept also needs to reverse refugee settlement programs. They can start with the Somalians in Minnesota and Dearborn, Michigan.
SOMEONE NEEDS TO QUIT USING NEW MATH
THOSE NUMBERS ARE TOTALLY BOGUS
10 billions/120000 is $83333
With all the expenses for gov administrators, it seems sort of reasonable to me.
I am not sure, how much benefits do refugees qualify for?!
