Federal Judges' Rulings on Refugee Acceptance
Federal judges in California ruled that President Trump must allow roughly 40,000 refugees approved by President Biden. The judges' decisions contradict Trump's legal claims and election mandate to reduce migration. The rulings benefit meatpacking companies that rely on cheap refugee labor. Biden's administration aimed to import over 125,000 refugees in 12 months at a cost of $2.5 billion.
