I work for one of the largest resettlement organizations in the United States. We're already letting in less than this. The "official" number may now be 30,000, but the real numbers are more like 21,000 at the moment.

Nice arbitrary number. Jesus... That's the equivalent of a medium-sized American town. Why only 30k?

This is a disgrace and destroys the beacon America has held out to the world. Our immigration has never been perfect but Emma Lazarus’s words are our ideal, and we are constantly enriched by the brave dreamers who choose to become Americans.

Our immigration policy in 2018 should not be set by a bad Jewish poem from the 1880s. We have enough wretched refuse, thanks. We are not the property of the world.

The US doesn't even fill its current quota of refugees. There's a bottleneck somewhere, and it's not the lack of refugees. Ignore this change, and stay focused on what counts right now.

This sounds like something the First Nation should have thought of when the European settlers were emigrating to North America.
