Refugee Admissions capped at 7,500 in 2026

Trump Limits Refugee Admissions to 7,500

The Trump administration has dramatically reduced the number of refugees it will admit into the country in the coming year, from 125,000 last year to 7,500 this year.

The federal government published an announcement in the Federal Register on Thursday that disclosed it would cap refugee admissions at 7,500 in fiscal 2026, which began in October and ends in September 2026.

The available slots to apply have largely been reserved for people in South Africa.

“The admissions numbers shall primarily be allocated among Afrikaners from South Africa pursuant to Executive Order 14204, and other victims of illegal or unjust discrimination in their respective homelands,” the White House stated in a presidential determination.

Courts rule that the government must use funds for SNAP

Federal Judges Order USDA to Pay SNAP Benefits During Shutdown

42 million Americans rely on the program to buy food each month

This calculates out to 12.35% of our poulation on food assistance

Two federal judges on Oct. 31 said the U.S. Department of Agriculture is legally required to use emergency funds to pay out food stamps benefits during the government shutdown.

The Supplemental Nutrition and Assistance Program’s (SNAP’s) funding was set to lapse on Nov. 1 because of the government shutdown, potentially affecting the food security of more than 40 million Americans.

President Donald Trump responded to the rulings in a Truth Social post on Oct. 31. “I do NOT want Americans to go hungry just because the Radical Democrats refuse to do the right thing and REOPEN THE GOVERNMENT,” he said. “Therefore, I have instructed our lawyers to ask the Court to clarify how we can legally fund SNAP as soon as possible.”

A federal judge in Rhode Island ruled from the bench that the program must be funded using at least the contingency funds. U.S. District Judge Jack McConnell also asked for an update on progress by Monday.

Likewise, a federal judge in Massachusetts gave the administration until Monday to specify whether it would partially pay for SNAP benefits in November with contingency funds or fully pay for them with additional funding.
