I just went to this handy resource, The Cultural Orientation Resource Center,to check on the final tally of Iraqi refugees who came to the US in FY2009 which ended on September 30th. The number is 18,833. But they have FY2010 already being tallied. FY2010 began on October 1, 2009. If you will recall the Obama Administration set the ceiling for this fiscal year at a whopping 80,000!
Go here and check out the numbers for the first month of the fiscal year. Wow! Burma tops the list with 1,421, then Bhutan (Nepal) 1,223 and Iraq 803. And, it looks like we are on a roll with letting in more Somalis with 400 in the first month alone!
We have no jobs! See new study from Center for Immigration Studies yesterday, here. (site off-line at the moment but it should be back up later)
