Advocates want the U.S. to provide more assistance to Ukrainian refugees
March 17, 2022
According to Marketplace.org almost three weeks ago more than 2.8 million Ukrainians have fled their country since the Russian invasion. The U.S. has pledged more than $4 billion in humanitarian aid for Ukraine and other Eastern European countries to help with the crisis. The U.S.-Mexico border has already seen some Ukrainian refugees seeking asylum. While the Biden administration has granted temporary protected status to Ukrainians who were already in the U.S. before the invasion, advocates are urging the administration to provide more assistance to Ukrainian refugees. Some advocates believe the administration should actively bring refugees to the U.S. and resettle them throughout the country.
