(CNSNews.com) – Not one refugee has arrived in the United States since fiscal year 2020 began 36 days ago, a State Department spokesperson confirmed on Monday, adding that the last time there had been an “extended pause” in admissions was in November 2001.
Admissions would resume on Tuesday, the spokesperson said.
“The last instance of an extended pause in refugee arrivals occurred when the Presidential Determination on Refugee Admissions for Fiscal Year 2002 was not signed until November 21, 2001,” the spokesperson said.
On Friday, President Trump signed the presidential determination on refugee admissions for FY 2020, confirming his administration’s earlier proposal of a ceiling of 18,000 admissions – the lowest annual cap since the inception of the modern refugee admission program in 1980.

At the moment, there is no reason to take any.
“Admissions would resume on Tuesday, the spokesperson said.”
Better never than later…
That’s only 18000 too many!
Admitting 1,000,000 people a year is insanity!
It would be great if we could achieve a large net negative number.
How about for every refugee we let in, we expell one Antifa loser?
Obama seeded a base to get the likes of Omar and tlaib elected.
Traitor.
Sean Doolittle of the Washington Nationals has the sads.
That’s 18,000 LEGAL immigrants per year, and that’s only 30 per state each month. That ain’t many at all. There are more ILLEGALS than that getting in every week. Maybe more legal immigrants can be allowed in if we stop all the illegals.
