Delivering for the American People and Meeting Urgent Needs in the New Fiscal Year | The White House


In addition, we strongly urge Congress to use the short-term CR to meet our commitments to Afghan allies and partners. The operation to move out of danger and to safety tens of thousands of Afghans at risk, including many who helped us during our two decades in Afghanistan, represents an extraordinary military, diplomatic, security, and humanitarian operation by the U.S. Government. This operation has spanned the globe, beginning with moving evacuees from Afghanistan to third-country transit hubs on military air and charter flights. At transit hubs, evacuees are housed on U.S. bases, where they undergo biometric and biographic security screenings before they are allowed into the United States. In addition to security processing, evacuees receive extensive COVID-19 and other public health precautions and are resettled in the United States with the help of government-funded NGO partners.

We urge Congress to appropriate $6.4 billion to enable the success of this multifaceted, historic mission. The majority of the requested funds are for DOD and State to support processing sites overseas and in the United States and U.S. government transportation for our allies and partners between processing sites and the United States. The funding request also includes support for humanitarian assistance through State and USAID to Afghans at risk in the region and targeted funding to HHS and State to provide Afghans paroled into the United States with public health screenings and vaccinations along with full resettlement resources and a path to enable them to build successful new lives here.

A short-term CR is necessary not only to provide Congress additional time to pass full-year appropriations bills that make bold, forward-looking investments in our future, but also to address the specific, urgent needs facing our country right now. I’m looking forward to continued engagement with members of both parties and on both sides of the Capitol to get the job done

Refugee programs have employees that need to be paid.

it’s as simple as paying for car services to take the wife to the grocery store weekly or to go to work. You still have to pay the programs.


You’re complaining about contract work for Americans.

Where have you ever worked where funding for services stayed the same every year? :mjlol:More customers means more services and more employees to handle those new services.Demand changes funding.

I’m telling you as someone who works with Afghan refugees. A woman I work with learned to drive in a year and now has her own car she pays for. But she needed driving lessons with a Dari speaking instructor.Thats where the money went up front. And while she learned she came to work in a government funded shuttle program.




Those programs change as the need changes. More refugees in more places means more funding. They all aren’t staying in the same 5 block radius.
