Refugee contractors have a vested interest in making sure as many refugees are resettled across the U.S. as possible because their ANNUAL FEDERALLY-FUNDED BUDGETS are contingent on the number of refugees they resettle.
Those refugee contractors include:
Church World Service (CWS), Ethiopian Community Development Council (ECDC), Episcopal Migration Ministries (EMM), Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society (HIAS), International Rescue Committee (IRC), U.S. Committee for Refugees and Immigrants (USCRI), Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Services (LIRS), U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB), and World Relief Corporation (WR)
Refugee resettlement costs American TAXPAYERS nearly $9 BILLION every FIVE YEARS, according to the latest research. Over the course of five years, an estimated 16% of all refugees admitted will need housing assistance paid for by TAXPAYERS.
