The Backlog At The Border May Affect Pre-Vetted Refugees. Here's Why

The video discusses the US refugee cap, currently at 30,000, and its distinction from asylum seekers at the southern border. Refugees are referred by the UN and undergo extensive vetting before admission. In contrast, asylum seekers apply at the border, contributing to a backlog of over 900,000 cases. Due to system strain, officials consider reducing the refugee cap, potentially reallocating resources to process asylum claims. Human Rights Watch criticizes this potential policy shift, emphasizing the US's duty to care for refugees.
