“I truly believe that this is part of a larger systematic effort of the government to revoke legal status from immigrants who have entered the country legally, are here under humanitarian … protections and had legal status when President Trump took office,” he [Myal Greene] maintained. “And I think that those are immigration policies which are less about safety and security and more about where immigrants have come from.”The head of World Relief, a refugee resettlement organization, is calling on the Trump administration to reverse its policy of reviewing the cases of refugees admitted into the United States during the Biden administration.
In an interview with The Christian Post, World Relief CEO Myal Greene defended the vetting process and highlighted the biblical mandate to care for strangers, lamenting Trump's actions of reviewing and potentially re-interviewing some refugees as a “systematic effort” to undermine the refugee resettlement program.
Greene has called on the Trump administration to withdraw its policy, which was implemented by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services and detailed in an internal memo. The policy requires all refugees admitted into the U.S. during the Biden administration to undergo a review and a potential re-interview “to determine that they met the refugee definition” under federal law.
