Heavy rains are causing serious flooding and displacement in the Dadaab refugee camps. UNHCR is working together with @GarissaGov & partners, mobilizing core relief items for distribution, and moving people to safe locations.
ICYMI, last week, Congress voted to authorize resettlement support for Ukrainians! “We are grateful members of Congress finally addressed this harmful lapse in support for newly arriving Ukrainians.” - USCRI President & CEO @ENegash_USCRI. Read here: bit.ly/3wlo8WW
ICYMI, our most recent P&A brief discusses the systematic use of sexual violence as a driver of displacement and an ongoing threat in migration in #Haiti & the Darién Gap. Read here: bit.ly/3Warabg

Thank you Rep. @chelliepingree for your work on the bipartisan Asylum Seeker Work Authorization Act. This is a much-deserved award for your work supporting asylum seekers as they become self-sufficient, establishing roots, & contribute to our economy. #LetAsylumSeekersWork

This brief contains language about sexual violence. In recent months, the systematic use of sexual violence as a driver of displacement and an ongoing threat in migration has escalated in #Haiti & the Darién Gap. Read our latest brief from @v_walker93: bit.ly/3Warabg

Chag Pesach samech! Wishing everyone a joyous Passover!
Lasting solutions to displacement MUST factor in the importance of #ClimateChange as a displacement driver, a barrier to integration into new communities, AND a factor in repeat displacement. #EarthDay2024 Learn more: bit.ly/40onJwO
USCRI joins 100+ orgs, led by NPNA & @verainstitute, to urge @PattyMurray, @SenatorCollins, @RepKayGranger, & @rosadelauro, leaders of House and Senate Approps, to protect due process rights of people facing deportation by allocating funds to address gaps in legal representation.
#ClimateChange can be a root cause of #displacement, yet those fleeing climate-related crises have no clear pathway to protection. The Climate Displaced Persons Act would fill this gap and help people find safety in the U.S. #EarthDay2024 Learn more: bit.ly/3MPM2yV
Displaced populations often live in remote places, overcrowded camps, & informal settlements, without the infrastructure needed to protect against climate hazards, which often leads to repeated displacement. #EarthDay2024 Learn more: bit.ly/40onJwO
The crisis in #Sudan is deeply personal to USCRI as Sudan was critical in our President & CEO @ENegash_USCRI's journey to the U.S. Our shared humanity calls us to do better. Sudan's plight can no longer be ignored. Read more: bit.ly/3U6F5MX
Demand action on climate displacement this #EarthDay! Encourage your member of Congress to support the #ClimateDisplacedPersonsAct to boost climate resilience efforts and create new protections for those forced from their homes by climate disaster. bit.ly/3MPM2yV

When I was in #Kakuma & #Kalobeyei in 2023 & 2024, cuts to food rations were already a major problem & worsening protection risks many refugees face, especially children. It is alarming to hear new reports of WFP cuts of up to 60% from the basic food ration. More must be done.
USCRI is concerned by reports of major food cuts to #Kakuma #refugee camp & #Kalobeyei Settlement. Food shortages are already a major issue & exacerbate numerous protection concerns, incl. those impacting children. We will watch this situation & provide updates as it develops.
What is #ClimateDisplacement?🧵 For 85+ years, Global Refuge has assisted forcibly uprooted people from around the globe. But now more than ever, we are seeing an unprotected group seeking refuge: people who are displaced, in whole or in part, due to climate disasters. #EarthDay

NEW: Today, @SecMayorkas announced the extension and redesignation of Ethiopia for Temporary Protected Status for 18 months, from June 13, 2024, to December 12, 2025, due to ongoing armed conflict and extraordinary and temporary conditions. Learn more: dhs.gov/news/2024/04/1…

Cuban Haitian Nicaraguan Venezuelan parole is very much not a secret program or surprise to anyone following DHS. CHNV was a massive deal when it was announced and packaged with other border changes on January 5, 2023. The idea it’s a clandestine program is brazenly misleading.
What a dishonest article. "Happening outside of public view" = announced by the President, widely publicized on USCIS.gov, and monthly data on arrivals released voluntarily. But because DHS is fighting a FOIA for granular data on airports, Bensman cries "secret."
As war in #Sudan continues to escalate with atrocities mounting, efforts like @StateDept's appointment of @tomperriello as US Special Envoy for Sudan are vital. The humanitarian situation is rapidly deteriorating & demands immediate attention & resources. state.gov/announcement-o…
